Una visa O-2 es una visa para el personal de apoyo de un solicitante de visa O-1.
La evidencia debe demostrar la actual esencialidad de la visa O-2, sus habilidades críticas y experiencia con el beneficiario O-1, y que el O-2 tiene una amplia experiencia desempeñando habilidades críticas y servicios de apoyo esenciales para el O-1.
El solicitante de la visa O-1 también será el solicitante de la visa O-2. Las solicitudes para las visas O-1 y O-2 se pueden presentar simultáneamente, o la solicitud de visa O-2 se puede presentar después de que se apruebe la solicitud del solicitante de visa O-1. Si la solicitud de visa O-2 se presenta después de que se apruebe la solicitud de visa O-1, el aviso de aprobación del solicitante de visa O-1 debe incluirse en la petición del solicitante de visa O-2.
La evidencia para la petición de visa O-2 debe incluir el currículum del solicitante de visa O-2, que debe incluir los proyectos pasados en los que ha trabajado con el solicitante de visa O-1 y enumerar su otra experiencia en el rol que se solicita para el O-2 según lo requerido por el O-1.
La petición también debe incluir una declaración del solicitante explicando por qué el trabajo del solicitante de visa O-2 será esencial para el O-1 y necesario para que el O-1 complete su trabajo para el empleador.
Si el O-1 fue solicitado por un empleador, la petición de visa O-2 debe incluir un contrato de empleo entre el O-1 y el solicitante de visa O-2.
Si el beneficiario trabajará en más de una ubicación, también debe haber un itinerario para el O-2 que enumere las producciones o eventos en los que el O-2 trabajará con el O-1.
La solicitud también debe incluir una declaración del O-1 explicando los antecedentes y experiencia del solicitante de visa O-2, así como las producciones o eventos en los que el O-1 y el O-2 han trabajado juntos.
Al igual que la visa O-1, la solicitud de visa O-2 también requiere una carta de consulta de la organización laboral correspondiente.
Las tarifas para la visa O-2 incluyen la tarifa de presentación, la tarifa de la carta de consulta y la tarifa de procesamiento premium, que es opcional.
Es posible tener varios beneficiarios O-2 para un solicitante de visa O-1, siempre y cuando cada beneficiario apoye en los mismos eventos o actuaciones O-1 durante el mismo período y en la misma ubicación

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!
