39: Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals Expansion with Mercer Cauley

In this special bonus episode, I describe how Immigration Leaders can leverage the power of their voice to build their community Since relaunching the show last week, and launching an open call to action for Leaders within the Immigration community to come on this show and our upcoming video panels, I have received a lot of questions that boil down to two categories. Why would I want to do this? How do I go about doing this? I actually covered both of these, a much more, in an article I wrote for the EB-5 Investors Magazine. So I re-purposed that article, threw in some updates and bring it to you here.

In this episode you will hear: A more specific detail about Sports and Entertainment Immigration. What makes Entertainment Immigration unique as it concerns a very specific handful of visa options. Sample story that didn't work out when the Applicant submitted a fabricated video performance as evidence. Effects of fabricating materials or falsifying evidence: Will be under close introspection every time he/she applies thereafter. No longer applicable to apply for Business Visa Different visa options for Artists, Entertainers, Athletes and Performers H1B - Temporary workers and trainees O - Temporary Workers of Extraordinary ability P - Athletes and Entertainers Nuances such as itineraries and petitioning entity Benefits and Ideal Persons for O Visa: Also known as Elite Visa for Artists or Individuals with extra ordinary abilities Anyone who gained a strong reputation, recognition or acclaimed from outside sources such as Journalists, Dentists Dancers, Choreographers who have worked with number of different sources, have gained a strong reputation in their home country or anywhere. The beneficiary is not seeking a permanent residency or Green Card Not necessary to have plenty of money to apply.

More or less 1 year duration of stay. Athletes are allowed to stay longer than Artists. Signed to a reputable company and with tour schedule. Michael's parting thoughts: For any beneficiaries, Even if the trip is cheaper or easier and more convenient, it is NOT ideal to go to Canada or Mexico to have an interview due to a number of boarder crossing issues, unless you're a Canadian national or Mexican. It is significantly easier and recommended to go elsewhere like Europe, East Asia, Middle East, South America, Costa Rica or England to have an interview.        "Never give up hope. Always realize that there are options available in every scenario, it might not be the most ideal but there are solutions to every problem and we're here to figure them out with you."
