HOW TO GET AN O1 VISA LIKE MESSI Can you get an O1 visa like Messi reportedly received to enter the U.S. and play soccer for Inter Miami CF? This photo of Messi's O1 visa shows his last name as "GOAT," so it's a fake. But that's not important right now. What’s important is that you don't need to be as extraordinary as Messi to qualify for an O1 visa, which is vastly underutilized by the best and brightest around the world. You just need to satisfy at least 3 of the following 8 criteria: 1. Awards for Excellence Have you recieved any nationally or internationally recognized awards for excellence? If you raised venture capital, that counts as an award, by the way. 2. Membership Are you a member in associations in your field that require outstanding achievements of their members? 3. Press Has there been any press in professional or major trade publications or other major media about you relating to your work in the field? 4. Critical or Essential Employment Have you been employed in a critical or essential capacity by any orgainizations with a distinguished reputation? 5. High Remuneration Have you commanded a high salary or will you command a high salary or other remuneration for your services? 6. Judging Have you ever been a judge of other entrepreneurs or startups in your industry? 7. Original Contributions Have you made any original contributions of major significance in your industry? 8. Scholarly Articles Have you authored any scholarly articles about your area of expertise? Finally, please note: If you graduated from a prestigious startup accelerator, you probably satisy at least 4 of those criteria. So, if you'd like to bring YOUR extraordinary ability to Team USA, use the link in my bio to schedule a video consultation.

5 WAYS TO LOSE YOUR GREEN CARD Number 1: Living Outside of the US for Too Long If you're a green card holder who decides to live outside of the US for more than a year, an officer of Customs and Border Protection (or CBP) can trigger processes to revoke your green card and deport you. This can happen after shorter absences from the U.S. as well, especially those that exceed 6 months. Fortunately, there's a simple solution. If you know that you're going to be out of the country for an extended period of time, apply for a Reentry Permit before departure. It's valid for two years. Number 2: Voluntarily Surrendering Your Green Card If you don't want to pay U.S. taxes or just don't want to be a permanent resident anymore, you can file a form I407 to voluntarily surrender your green card. But don't be pressured or tricked by a CBP officer into doing this if you don't want to. Insist on speaking with an immigration attorney and a hearing in front of a U.S. immigration judge, where you'll at least have an opportunity to fight for your green card and permanent resident status. Number 3: Being Convicted of a Crime If you're caught selling or using drugs or committing some sort of felony, you can lose your green card and be deported. Number 4: Commiting Fraud Fraud or willful misrepresentation can lead to loss of your green card and deportation, too. Fraud comes in many forms, such as marriage fraud, lying about your intent when applying for a nonimmigrant visa, or perhaps worst of all, posing as a U.S. citizen in order to cast a fraudulent vote in a U.S. election. Number 5: Failing to Remove Conditions on Permanent Residence If your green card is conditional and valid for only two years - such as if your green card was based on marriage that was less than two years old when you got it - you can lose it and be deported if you don't file a petition to remove those conditions during the 90-day period immediately before your conditional residence expires. #greencard #permanentresidency #immigration #immigrationlawyer #reentrypermit #fyp
