Success Stories: O-1 Visa Renewal for Comic/Comedian from Ecuador granted for three years

The O-1 nonimmigrant visa is for individuals who possess extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics, or who has a demonstrated record of extraordinary achievement in the motion picture or television industry and has been recognized nationally or internationally for those achievements.
We recently received an approval for a 3-year O-1B Extraordinary Ability in the Arts renewal application for an Ecuadorian Comic/Comedian. The beneficiary applied for a visa at the U.S. Consulate in Guayaquil with a petitioning U.S. entity. Congratulations to our clients!
The O-1 visa can be granted for a period of stay of up to three years, depending on the time needed to accomplish the activity or event. Once a visa petition is approved at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), an applicant must apply for a physical visa for insertion in their passport at a consulate abroad to be able to enter the United States in O-1 status.
Please note that at this time, visa appointments at consular posts are limited and some posts require that the appointment be scheduled months in advance. You must be able to demonstrate an urgent business purpose to successfully request an expedited appointment. Check here for the current interview appointment wait times.
We have successfully assisted artists and their petitioners with their O-1 visa applications at USCIS and at consulates abroad.
