Success Stories/Immigration/O-1 Extraordinary Ability Visa/Short-Form Drama Director: Approved in 15 Days Without RFE
15 days

Approved without RFE

Short-Form Drama Director

Background

Mr. C is a newly graduated rising talent in film and TV who secured an O-1 visa to stay and build his career in the United States within just one year of OPT.

Challenges

The short-form drama industry has no authoritative major awards yet, and as a recent graduate, his résumé was relatively thin.

Strategy

We drew out the recognition value of his work through ratings and viewership data, added his experience serving as a film festival judge to strengthen the overall case, and continued arranging media coverage to keep him in the news.

Outcome

O-1 approved on first submission with no RFE within 15 days.
