1. Submit a free evaluation request online

Please send us your resume and your basic information by submitting a free evaluation request online. Please click here.

2. Receive a response from our principal attorney

Our attorneys will respond to your email personally, analyze your qualifications and provide you with an honest appraisal of the likelihood of successful approval. North America Immigration Law Group has developed a carefully designed O-1 Credential Test™ based on the law and opinions of the USCIS, Administrative Appeals Office (AAO), judicial review opinions and our experience. We review your qualifications for O-1 classification in the context of the criteria test and our principal attorney's evaluation.

3. Two results of your case appraisal

A. You are qualified for O-1 Visa:

If after our careful review we determine you are qualified for the category of O-1, you will be sent our full service package.

B. You are not qualified for O-1 Visa:

If after our evaluation, the likelihood of having your case approved under the category of O-1 is not high, you can seek other alternatives for your immigration benefits.

4. Further communication

After receiving our evaluation of your qualifications for an O-1 visa, you are encouraged to communicate about your situation and ask any questions, express any concerns or address any immediate needs by phone or email. Formulating actual questions sometimes helps focus your mind on what you really want or need to know. All the information we receive in the process is confidential.

5. Please note

Up to this point, the analysis of your chance of success and exchange of information concerning the general outlook and potential of your case do not amount to legal opinion or create an attorney-client relationship.
