  • The breadth of contributions across multiple employers and projects required strategic selection and presentation of the strongest evidence.
  • Enterprise-scale impact is often invisible from the outside, making it difficult to provide traditional evidence of extraordinary ability.
  • The EB1A case required clear positioning of enterprise-level work as meeting USCIS standards for extraordinary ability and sustained acclaim.
