Do you want to take your career to the next level and upgrade your employment status? It can be quite challenging to convert from EB2 visa to EB1 visa, but it's not impossible! (There are) several steps you must take in order to make this happen. Firstly, you must demonstrate that you have extraordinary ability in your field. This may include having achieved national or international acclaim for accomplishments within your profession. You'll need substantial evidence of sustained achievement and recognition by professional peers or government organisations.
Moreover, you must also prove that you will substantially benefit the U.S.'s economy, culture or educational resources through your work experience and knowledge. To do this, provide documents like awards, citations or publications related to your area of expertise as well as a letter from a potential employer stating why hiring you would be beneficial for them. Not just that, but a comprehensive resume detailing all of your professional achievements is also essential!
Furthermore, if you're looking to get a job offer from a U.S.-based company then they may need to file an Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker with the Department of Homeland Security on your behalf. Here they will have to fill out Form I-140 which provides information about their business as well as proof that there are no qualified American workers available in the same position for which they are seeking foreign talent. So it’s important that you do some research into potential employers before applying!
Finally, remember that the entire process can be quite lengthy and complex so make sure you allow yourself enough time when applying so as not to miss any deadlines or requirements along the way! With careful planning and preparation though, upgrading from EB2 to EB1 is definitely achievable — if not daunting — task! Good luck!
