EB1 Green Card – Major Internationally Recognized Award EB1 green card qualifying awards exist in almost every field of endeavor. The most obvious and most well-known American awards are in the area of entertainment, such as an Oscar, a Grammy, a Tony, an Emmy, SAG and the Golden Globes.
Academic Award We have to look at any academic award that has been granted on a national or international basis rather than being conferred by a single university. Examples would include the MacArthur Fellowship, the Fields Medal, the Bancroft Prize, and the Nobel Prize, to name just a few. Many pursuits have great and acclaimed awards like the Pulitzer Prize for journalism.
For EB1 Green Card purposes, the idea is that the award is so prestigious, that no matter which university the academic hailed from the award would be such that every national university (and perhaps internationally) would recognize the significance of the award within academic circles. For example, the Pulitzer Prize is nationally and internationally recognized.
Awards Can Be From Any Country in the World It is very important to note that awards can be from any country in the world, as every country has its own way of recognizing extraordinary talent. Many EB1 green cards are routinely granted for awards unheard of in the US.
Key Message The key message here is that whilst there are many ways to qualify for an EB1 green card, if you have won any kind of major award, no matter how long ago, you may well be qualified without knowing it.
