EB-1A extraordinary ability
Work
EB-1A is the employment green card for people at the very top of their field — and you can file it yourself, with no employer and no job offer. The petition is Form I-140, built on evidence measured against the criteria USCIS publishes.
The forms
The immigrant petition for a worker — the employment-based green card petition.
The green card application itself — registering permanent residence from inside the U.S.
How it works
In English, Spanish, or Portuguese. The software puts your answers on the official USCIS forms.
Your evidence is sorted into a numbered exhibit index, and every field, signature, and document is checked for completeness.
Download the assembled packet and file it yourself — or have an independent licensed attorney review and file it for you.
Pricing
Your exact technology fee depends on your petition type and is shown during the free eligibility check, before you pay anything. USCIS filing fees are set by the government and paid by you directly to USCIS.
Questions
Yes — the EB-2 national interest waiver is an employment-based green card with no employer needed, one of the self-petition paths. The free check shows what a case like yours involves.
It depends on the petition. The self-petition paths need no employer. Petitions like the H-1B or L-1 are submitted by an employer, so they are not sold as self-help drafts here — each of those pages explains the path.
There are two routes: the E-2 treaty investor visa (a visa, not a green card) and the EB-5 investor green card, which involves an $800,000 investment and needs an immigration lawyer. Each page explains the path.
