The U.S. Extraordinary Ability immigration program can be considered a fast track to U.S. immigration. EB-1A belongs to the first preference category (EB-1) of U.S. employment-based immigration. Applicants only need to demonstrate recognized achievements in their field (such as science, arts, education, business, or athletics), show that they will continue to work in that profession in the future, and provide substantial benefits to the United States to obtain a U.S. permanent green card for themselves and their entire family.
