    How to meet the O-1A extraordinary ability requirements

    With the virtual disappearance of the H-1B visa due to Donald Trump's new exorbitant $100,000 filing fee charge, the O-1 extraordinary ability classification has become increasingly important for professional level individuals seeking to develop their careers in the US. For those who qualify, O-1 has several advantages compared to H-1B and most other work visas.

    First, unlike H-1B, O-1 is not subject to an annual quota limit. No one has to wait to be picked in a lottery to apply for O-1. Second, also unlike H-1B and L-1, there is no limit on the number of years that one can continue to work in O-1 status without having to pack up and return to one's country of origin

    Third, like H-1B and L-1, but unlike several other types of work visas, O-1 is a "dual intent" classification, meaning that one does not have to show intent to return to one's home country after finishing one's O-1 work program. There is no restriction on applying for a green card while in O-1 status.

    But here comes the difficult part of O-1: USCIS, through its regulations, has made O-1 status so hard to attain, that only comparatively few people can qualify. This is especially true of the O-1A program for people with extraordinary ability in science, business, technology and athletics.

    Even though the O-1 statute nowhere requires this, the USCIS regulations provide that to qualify for O-1A, the candidate must be one of the small percentage who has risen to the very top of the field. There is no such requirement for O-1B extraordinary ability in the arts or in motion pictures.

    In contrast, the Congressionally enacted O-1 statute defines O-1 in general as requiring "sustained national or international acclaim".

    See 8 USC Section 1101, subsection O.

    The statute says nothing about requiring that the candidate be "one of the small percentage who has risen to the very top of the field.".


    So how is an O-1A applicant supposed to show that he or she is one of the very few who has reached the top of his or her field? Since I am confident that no one reading this article has won a Nobel Prize (one of the stated ways of showing this!), an O-1A applicant must meet any three of eight other listed criteria. These are as follows:

    1. Receipt of "nationally or internationally recognized" prizes or awards in his or her field.

    2. Membership in a professional organization that requires "outstanding achievement" as a condition for membership.

    3. Published material about the candidate and his work in "major publications".

    4. The candidate has participated as a judge of the work of others in his or her field.

    5. The candidate has made "original" contributions of "major significance" in his or her field.

    6. The candidate has authored scholarly articles in the field in professional journals or other "major" media.

    7. The candidate has been employed in a "critical or essential" capacity for organizations and establishments that have a "distinguished" reputation.

    8. The candidate has received or will receive a "high" salary.

    The one thing that stands out among all these requirements is that they use vague terms such as "leading", "essential", "major" and "distinguished", which can mean many different things depending on the opinion of the adjudicator.

    To try to provide some clarity to the meaning of these and other similarly vague terms in the O-1A regulations, USCIS provides certain explanations and examples of ways to meet the above requirements in its Policy Manual. However, these examples are merely illustrative and do not cover all of the possible O-1A situations. I will discuss some of these explanations and examples in a future article on this topic.

    $100,000 H-1B fee is immigration white supremacy in action.

    A lot has been written about the harm that will be done to the US economy in general and to the tech industry in particular by Trump's new $100,000 H-1B filing fee. Two lawsuits against this huge increase have been filed by various groups claiming, with great justification, that this increase was illegal and way beyond the powers of Trump and his administration.

    And if Trump can get away with effectively ending the H-1B program by imposing this huge new fee, what is there to stop him from imposing similar fees on all other immigration filings - such as F-1 student visas, green cards through marriage to a US citizen and all other immigration applications? If Trump is allowed to get away with this exorbitant charge for H-1B filings - based on a tissue of lies about alleged but unproven H-1B employer abuses, what is there to stop him from ending all other legal immigration programs as well by imposing similar sky-high filing fees?

    There are two main issues raised by imposing this huge, sudden filing fee increase. The first is that the filing fee increase is obviously part of Trump's racist, white supremacist immigration agenda in general. Most estimates are that 70% of current H-1B visas are held by one Asian country - India, with 11% going to China.

    But this obvious anti-Asian racism is not the only danger to America's humanistic values as a nation where everyone is equal under the law, regardless of race, religion or ancestry. By unilaterally raising the USCIS filing fee, Trump is in direct violation of the Administrative Procedure Act, which requires a period for public notice and comment before changing any regulations affecting immigration.

    From that perspective, Trump's unilaterally ending future H-1B filings by lawlessly imposing this huge new fee is one more test of his ability to impose dictatorial power instead of following the rule of law.

    Most comments on the new filing fee are focused on the details of who is subject to it and who is exempt. While these details are of course important, they should not be allowed to obscure the larger picture of racism and dictatorship that this fee represents. I will follow the progress of the two lawsuits that have been filed against this exorbitant filing fee and write further comments based on the results of the litigation.

    marriage green card

    In this time of great uncertainty about immigration, many people are considering marriage to a US citizen or permanent resident as a safe way to get a green card. And, for many people, it is a relatively safe way. But this is true only if the rules for this case are followed very carefully.

    What are the requirements for a successful marriage green card case? These can be divided into three categories: 1) Eligibility, 2) Genuine marriage, and 3) Ability to support (Public Charge).

    1) Eligibility: Who is eligible to file for a marriage based green card? In order to file, if you are in the US, you must show that you entered the US legally, i.e. with a valid I-94. If you entered the US illegally, you can begin your marriage green card application in the US, but at some point you will have to leave the US to attend an interview for a marriage-based visa at a US consular office abroad.

    However, if you entered the US legally, you can complete your marriage green card case in the US even if your legal status has expired or if you violated your legal status.

    Your US spouse must be a US citizen (native born or naturalized) or a lawful US permanent resident (green card holder).

    2) Genuine marriage:

    Most importantly, you must have a real marriage relationship with your spouse. Entering into a fraudulent marriage just to get the green card may make you permanently ineligible to remain in the US or enter the US in the future.

    3) Means of Support - Public Charge.

    Even with a genuine marriage relationship, you must show that you have a means of support and will not need public assistance after you receive your green card. This involves an affidavit of support to be filed by your spouse, and may also require one or more additional "joint sponsor" affidavits of support to be filed by family members or friends.

    What do you need to do to show a genuine marriage relationship? Showing that you have a genuine marriage relationship is the most important part of a marriage-based green card case. After filing, you and your spouse are almost certain to be called for an interview together at the immigration office to show proof that your are living together. At the interview, you will need to show the following documents:

    a) Lease or deed to your apartment or house,
    b) bank statements - either joint or separate showing that you and your spouse have the same address,
    c) Federal and state income tax returns (either separate or joint) credit card and utility bills, insurance policies and any other documents showing that you are both receiving mail at the same address,
    d) Photos of you both together and with other close friends and family members,
    e) Optional - letters or statements from friends who have visited you both together or socialized with you both. You will likely also be asked questions about how you and your spouse met, where you went on your first date, as well as any trips you have taken together, and contact with each others' family members etc.

    Regarding affidavit of support - public charge requirements, your US spouse (and any joint sponsor) will need to file an affidavit showing current income of at least 125% of the current poverty level guidelines for your household size as published by the US Department of Labor, along with his or her US (IRS) tax return for the latest filing year showing at least the above income. He or she will also be required to show at least the above amount of adjusted gross income from IRS tax returns for the two most recent previous tax years (though the actual returns for those two previous years are not required. Affidavit of support sponsors and joint sponsors are also required to show W-2 forms, pay records or other proof of income or assets meeting the above requirements.

    In summary, the documentary requirements for a marriage green card case are both complex and strict, and they require careful preparation by an experienced immigration attorney, Roger Algase, Attorney at Law, has more than 40 years experience with marriage -based immigration cases and he is ready to help you no matter where you live in the US, and whether your marriage is opposite or same sex.

    O-1 visa for Sushi Chefs

    These days, I am getting inquiries from people who are interested in applying for an O-1 extraordinary ability visa as a sushi chef or other specialty Japanese food chef. I tell them that this visa is possible, provided that the applicant meets strict requirements.

    First, one has to choose between O-1A, which requires various types of technical skills, or O-1B, commonly known as the "artist visa", and is a little less strict in its requirements. Fortunately, it is well settled that specialty chefs are accepted as practicing an art form for visa purposes, and that they may apply for an O-1B visa.

    So what are the main requirements for a sushi chef to qualify for O-1B visa approval? They are as follows:

    1) The O-1 candidate must have a history of working in a leading or essential role for one or more restaurants that have a distinguished reputation, and must show that he or she will be working in such a role for a distinguished
    restaurant or similar organization in O-1B status.

    2) There must be published articles in leading or professional media about the O-1B candidate and his or her work,

    3) The O-1B candidate must have recommendation letters from other experts in the field.

    4) As an alternative to any one of the above three requirements, the O-1B candidate can show that he or she has been earning an above average salary compared to other sushi chefs.

    There are three other alternate requirements which are less often used to qualify for O-1B; namely a) having won a national or international prize, b) being a member of an organization requiring outstanding achievement for membership, and c) having one's work shown at distinguished venues or events. These three alternatives will not be discussed in this article.

    With regard to the first of the above listed requirements, it is critically important to show the distinguished reputation of the restaurant or similar establishments where the O-1B candidate has been working as head chef. No matter how extraordinary his or her own cooking may be and have been, unless both his or her previous employers and future O-1B employer are very well known, or have achieved distinguished recognition (such as by Michelin), O-1B approval may be difficult to attain.

    The same is true concerning media articles about the O-1B candidate. No matter how big the circulation may be of a publication with an article about the sushi chef and his or her work, the article may be rejected by the USCIS examiner if the publication has only local circulation.

    In the same way, experts submitting recommendation letters must provide evidence of their own reputations in the field, as well as discussing the O-1B candidate and his or her accomplishments in detail.

    As long as one can meet the above standards, which are applied with increasing strictness by the USCIS office, O-1B approval for sushi and other specialty Japanese food chefs should be possible. Please feel free to contact the undersigned for further information.

    Expatriation ・ Freelance Required ! In-depth "Double Taxation Measures" for U.S. Taxpayers

    ---Two Options for U.S. Taxpayers Working Abroad : Two Options to Prevent Double Taxation ---
    When a U.S. citizen, green card holder, or other person with U.S. tax obligations earns income abroad, there are two important programs to prevent "double taxation ( in both the foreign country and the U.S.": the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion ( and the Foreign Tax Credit (. There are two important programs to prevent "double taxation )": the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion and the Foreign Tax Credit . The choice of which one to choose depends on the amount of income, local tax rates, and family structure.

    1 . Foreign Earned Income Exclusion ( What is the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion ) ?
    This is an exclusion of income earned abroad by U.S. citizens, green card holders, and others who have tax obligations in the United States, This is a system that allows U.S. citizens, green card holders, and other individuals with U.S. tax obligations to exclude up to a certain amount of income from U.S. taxation.
    This system is designed to prevent "double taxation ( in both foreign countries and the U.S. ) on the same income.

    \1) Outline of the System
    This system allows a person who has a tax liability in the U.S. to exclude from U.S. taxation up to a certain amount of income earned by working abroad. It is one of the mechanisms to prevent double taxation.

    (2) Who is eligible
    U.S. citizenship or permanent residence holders ( Green card holders ) and other U.S. taxpayers who meet one of the following criteria :
    1. Bona Fide Residence Test ( True Residence Test ) : Resided in a foreign country from January 1 through December 31
    2. Physical Presence Test ( Physical Residence Test ) : Spent 330 or more days out of 12 consecutive months 330 days or more in a foreign country ( including long term business trips )
    *It is important to have a "Tax Home ( Tax Base )" in a foreign country for the entire year.

    (3) Maximum amount that can be excluded
    • For 2025 : Up to approximately $ 126,500 ( per person ) "Wages ・ wages ・ self-employment income earned abroad" etc. can be excluded from U.S. taxable in the U.S.
    • Married couples filing jointly can exclude up to $ 253,000 if they each meet the requirements.
    • Foreign housing expenses such as rent and utilities can be additionally excluded if they meet the requirements.

    (4) "Foreign-earned income" ( Foreign-earned income ) is ?
    • salary, compensation, or professional fees for work provided by an individual abroad.
    • It does not include income considered as profit sharing, such as shares or dividends.

    (5) Income earned abroad not included
    • Military personnel of the U.S. government or its agencies ・ Civil service pay
    • Pensions ・ Pension benefits
    • Investments ・ Stock income, Dividends ・ Interest

    (6) Notes
    • Once you choose an exclusion, it will continue to apply automatically in that and future years ( Withdrawals require a procedure ) .
    • You will not receive the Foreign Tax Credit ( ) for foreign taxes on excluded income.
    • If you choose to exclude, you will not be able to use the Earned Income Credit ( Earned Income Tax Credit ) or Additional Child Tax Credit ( Additional Child Tax Credit ) or other credits ・.

    2. Foreign Tax Credit ( Foreign Tax Credit )
    Outline of the System
    If an American taxpayer pays income tax in a foreign country, the tax paid in that foreign country is deducted directly from the American income tax to prevent double taxation. The taxpayer is allowed to deduct the tax paid in the foreign country directly from his/her U.S. income tax liability to avoid double taxation.

    (2) Who is eligible
    • US taxpayers who paid foreign income tax on foreign income
    • US citizens and green card holders

    (3) What taxes are eligible
    The deduction is limited to income taxes imposed on the taxpayer by a foreign country. Inheritance tax and consumption tax are not eligible.

    (4) Merit
    • Taxes paid in a foreign country are deducted directly from the "tax" due in the U.S., making the tax reduction very effective.
    • Unlike the exclusion system, there is no dollar limit on the deduction.
    • A wide range of "foreign-source income ( including investment income ) is eligible.
    • Undeducted foreign taxes can be carried forward up to 10 years after the previous ・ year.

    (5) Notes
    • Taxes on income excluded by the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion cannot be deducted.
    • In order to accurately calculate and reflect the foreign tax amount, the tax payment procedure ( withholding and tax return ) must be completed in the foreign country.


    ---Important Points to Know---
    Choice : FEIE and FTC cannot be combined. You must choose one of them to file.
    Continuity ( FEIE ) : Once you elect the FEIE, it automatically applies to the following year, and there is a 5-year limit on re-election after withdrawal.
    Disadvantages ( FEIE ) : If you choose FEIE, you may not be able to use other major tax credits such as Child Tax Credit.

    • even if taxes are withheld from your salary
    • and your company issues W-2 or 1099
    the individual is still responsible for properly calculating and reporting his/her annual income to the IRS.
    The taxpayer cannot rely on the company to "do it all" and the ultimate responsibility is the taxpayer him/herself.

    3. Who "must" file a Tax Return ?
    ( Those whose income exceeds a certain amount Most typical ) ( See : Image 1 )
    Age ・ There is a threshold amount for each filing status and it is determined if the threshold amount is exceeded.

    All of these are included.

    (2) Self-employment ( sole proprietorship ) income in excess of $ 400 per year

    Advantages ② Advantage in immigration process ( Visa ・ Green Card )
    Failure to declare
    • Renewal of status
    • Green Card
    • Permanent Residency Application
    Many times you will be asked why you have not filed.
    Advantages ③ Reduce risk of later IRS investigation
    Not filing is the most dangerous situation.
    If you file a return, it is easier to prove if a tax audit comes later.
    Benefits ④ Past subsidies ・ Tax credit payments
