Uma das opções de visto que os Serviços de Cidadania e Imigração Americanos (USCIS) oferecem é o visto P. Os vistos P são geralmente reservados para atletas reconhecidos internacionalmente (P-1A), artistas ou grupos que estão se apresentando em um programa cultural específico (P-2), artista ou entertainer que faz parte de um programa culturalmente único (P-3), ou alguém que seja membro de um grupo de entretenimento reconhecido internacionalmente (P-1B) e sua equipe técnica (P-1S).
A classificação P-1B
se aplica a você se estiver vindo para os Estados Unidos temporariamente, para se apresentar como membro de um grupo de entretenimento, estabelecido há no mínimo um ano e que seja famoso internacionalmente dentro da sua área de atuação, por um período estável e significativo.
Para ser elegível para o visto P-1B, pelo menos 75% dos membros da equipe devem ter um vínculo relevante e consistente com o grupo por pelo menos um ano (ou seja, pelo menos 75% dos membros da equipe devem ter sido membros por pelo menos um ano).
Além disso, o grupo de entretenimento precisa ser reconhecido internacionalmente, muito conhecidos na sua área, comprovado por habilidades e reconhecimento bastante acima da média a ponto de serem renomados, líderes na sua área de atuação e reconhecidos em mais de um país. A reputação do grupo é essencial, não a de um único indivíduo do grupo, nem o sucesso de apenas uma produção em particular.
Observe que este é um visto para equipes e, artistas individuais que não se apresentem como parte de um grupo, não são elegíveis para esta classificação de visto. No entanto, artistas individuais ou em dupla que se apresentam regularmente com instrumentistas de apoio, também podem ser elegíveis para este visto.
O pessoal de apoio, essencial para a performance do grupo, também é elegível para o visto P-1 para acompanhar e auxiliar o grupo. Esse seria o visto P-1S e seria requerido ao mesmo tempo da petição de visto P-1B do grupo. Para que o pessoal de apoio seja elegível para um visto P-1S, deve ser demonstrado que eles são parte integrante da apresentação de artista(s) P-1 e que realizam serviços de apoio que não podem ser prontamente executados por um trabalhador dos EUA. O pessoal de suporte pode incluir pessoal administrativo, operadores de câmera, técnicos de iluminação e pessoal de palco.

The latest policy alert, PA-2024-05, issued by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) on March 21, 2024, brings revisions to the USCIS Policy Manual, specifically focusing on expediting requests. These updates aim to simplify and elucidate the process for applicants, particularly those facing emergencies or urgent humanitarian needs. The primary goal is to make it easier for applicants to understand how to request expedited processing for their various submissions, including applications, petitions, appeals, or motions, especially in cases concerning government interests or urgent situations. While USCIS has historically permitted immigration benefit seekers to request expedited application processing in specific circumstances, the process has frequently been perceived as unclear, with decisions made arbitrarily on a case-by-case basis. The recent update seeks to rectify this by providing clarity and uniformity to the process and establishing explicit criteria and documentation standards. In order to request expedited processing, applicants need to adhere to a more defined procedure. This involves submitting thorough documentation and illustrating the urgency or government relevance of their case. The recent update also explains how USCIS reviews these requests, offering applicants a better grasp of the process. The update introduces special measures for speeding up the processing of Form I-131 (Application for Travel Document) in emergency situations. This acknowledges the urgent need for certain applicants to travel. The policy also acknowledges that expedited requests may be evaluated if there is evident USCIS error, aiming to uphold fairness and accountability within the processing system. These changes aim to make the expedited request process more transparent and understandable for applicants and their representatives. In summary, USCIS's revision regarding expedited requests signifies a notable advancement in rendering the immigration process more transparent and attentive to applicants' requirements. By comprehending these updated guidelines, applicants and their representatives can more effectively navigate the expedited request procedure, ensuring that urgent cases receive due consideration. If you believe you qualify for expedited processing under the recent USCIS policy updates, feel free to contact our office, and we will be more than happy to assist you.

As of April 1, 2024, USCIS has instituted an inflation adjustment to immigration application filing fees . These fee increases apply to a majority of the different application types, including family-based, non-immigrant, and immigrant petitions. As a part of these fee increases, USCIS has also instituted a new program designed to provide funding to the United States’ Asylum Program, in order to better address the massive backlog of pending asylum claims currently waiting to be adjudicated. Unfortunately, these changes have led to confusion among petitioners for when they are required to pay the Asylum Program Fee, and when they may qualify for a 50% or complete exemption from the fee. The Asylum Program Fee is required to be submitted by employers in all I-129 and I-140 petitions filed on or after April 1, 2024. The Asylum Program Fee is $600, however, certain exemptions apply . Small employers , defined as having 25 or fewer total employees, qualify for a reduction of the Asylum Program Fee, but are still required to submit a reduced fee of $300. Individual petitioners, or self-petitions, such as in the case of an EB-2 National Interest Waiver, are considered small employers for the purpose of the Asylum Program Fee and are also required to submit the reduced $300 fee. Non-profit organizations are exempted from the Asylum Program fee and are not required to submit any additional funds with the ordinary I-129 or I-140 filing fee. In addition, non-profits qualify for a 50% reduction of the ordinary filing fee in certain types of applications, bringing the overall filing fee burden down substantially for non-profit organizations. With these changes to USCIS’ filing fee schedule, USCIS is hoping for significant improvements to efficiency and processing for pending asylum applicants. If you or your petitioning organization need any assistance in preparing an application for an immigration benefit, including ensuring proper compliance with the new fee requirements, our office is ready and waiting to help!
