O Visa, P Visa - Extraordinary Talent & Entertainment Visas

Experienced Lawyers Based in Dallas

The U.S. welcomes individuals who have exceptional talent into the country to perform, visit, or teach in their respective specialties. To encourage and expedite their entry, the government provides special visa categories for such individuals.

Visas available for those with extraordinary talents:

  • The P visa categories make it easier for artists, entertainers, and other members of the entertainment field to enter the U.S.
    • P-1 Visas for Internationally Recognized Athletes, Artists, and Performers: Holders of this visa can enter the country to perform or compete at a specific event for a temporary period of time.
    • P-2 Visas for Performers or Groups Under a Reciprocal Exchange Program: Groups with as little as two people can apply for this visa and enter the country to perform at an event.
    • P-3 Visas Culturally Unique Entertainers and Artists: Artists and performers who have produced work that is culturally unique can enter the U.S. to educate or perform.
  • The O visa is intended to expedite entry into the U.S. for individuals with special achievement or ability in their fields.
    • O-1A Visas for Individuals of Extraordinary Ability or Achievement in education, science, business or athletics
    • O-1B Visas for Individuals of Extraordinary Ability in the arts, motion picture, television, or entertainment industry
    • O-2 Visas for Support Individuals Accompanying O-1 Visa Holders (such as assistants, support staff, nurses or other medical staff)

Eligibility for O & P Visas

To be eligible for a P visa, an individual must demonstrate outstanding ability or achievement that is recognized at an international level.

O-1 visa holders are reserved only for internationally-recognized individuals who have made significant contributions to their fields and require a much higher level of achievement than the P visas. Examples of O-1 visa holders include award-winning researchers, world-class athletes, Nobel laureates, multinational business leaders, etc.

    "...Highly recommended and great law firm."
    I just want to take a moment and personally thanks Kavitha & Akula Law Firm for helping me out and getting through my complicated I140 case. It was a impossible case which Kavitha made it possible. As usual Kavitha's expertise has been phenomenal. I am very grateful to her. Because of her experience and professionalism in filing the I-485 it didn't even trigger an RFE or an interview request, it was a direct approval. And having Ambreen and other expert counsel members are really great to work with. They are prompt and very helpful. Ambreen, is so wonderful and have dealt so patiently and promptly with me during my I485 and the efforts she have put towards my application was at par. I was fortunate to work with Ambreen during this filing period. Highly recommended and great law firm.

    "I am consistently impressed by Ms. Akula’s knowledge"
    I recommend Akula & Associates, P.C. to information technology companies needing diligent immigration services. Whether it be an Department of Labor investigation, ICE investigation or a site visit from USCIS they have always come through with excellent representation for our company. Unlike other immigration law firm merely doing visa processing, Akula & Associates offer many other services to IT companies such as debt collection, litigation, patents and trademark fillings. I am consistently impressed by Ms. Akula’s knowledge of immigration law and her prompt follow through.

    "I truly love their staff!"
    My journey started with Akula & Associates exactly 10 months ago. Came to know about them through a friend, casually called, impressed with their profile and signed up contract for services. Last 10 months we filed several cases and each case they treat like a completely new customer and examine each document thoroughly, advise and make us on top of the things. I truly say sincere THANKS for their great service. I truly love their staff. My paralegal Yezenia is awesome, attorney Toki is wonderful. Yet to work more with GC team, Shirin and Christie, great work experience so far. Last but not least Attorney Kavitha is Great!!! I hope I get the same level of service for me and employees for coming years!!! Good luck to Akula & Associates !!
