Turn Ten Criteria Into One Persuasive Case File
EB-1A splits a career into ten regulatory categories that still have to read as one persuasive case at final merits. US Immigration AI keeps all ten organized in one file from intake forward.

Three Ways to File an EB-1A Case
Self-Petition With No Sponsor:
This is the default and most common path. The individual is their own petitioner, with no employer, job offer, or labor certification required.
With an Employer Sponsor
An employer can choose to sponsor an EB-1A case, though nothing in the classification requires one. The evidentiary standard stays the same either way; a sponsor doesn't add, remove, or ease any of the ten criteria.
Concurrent I-140 and I-485 Filing
When a visa number is immediately available under the State Department's Visa Bulletin, I-140 and I-485 can be filed together instead of waiting for I-140 approval first. Most countries see EB-1 numbers current year-round; a few, including China and India, face longer backlogs and may need a current priority date first. Either way, the same case file carries through from petition to filing.
What's Included
What the Platform Handles for EB-1A Cases
- Criteria-Based Intake Screening
AI Intake asks structured questions mapped to the ten regulatory criteria during the first conversation. A prospect's likely case strength shows up as an organized summary, not scattered notes an attorney pieces together later.
- Document Collection Tied to Criteria
Clients upload supporting documents through a secure portal. Each file is tagged to the specific criterion it supports. Missing categories are flagged automatically instead of surfacing for the first time during drafting.
- Petition Letter and Form Drafting
The I-140 and supporting petition letter draft directly from the evidence already on file. That covers the record as a whole, not a blank page. An attorney still writes and approves the legal argument; the platform only assembles the first draft.
- Exhibit-Heavy Case Assembly
EB-1A exhibit files routinely run to hundreds of pages across ten categories. The platform builds a labeled exhibit index with continuous pagination. Both update automatically when exhibits are added, removed, or reordered.
- Attorney Review Checkpoints
Every drafted section and every organized exhibit stops for attorney review before anything moves toward USCIS. Nothing reaches a final state without a lawyer's sign-off.

The Ten Criteria
Every EB-1A Criterion Tagged Before Drafting Starts
USCIS defines ten specific categories of evidence at 8 CFR §204.5(h)(3). A petitioner generally needs to satisfy at least three of them. The Document Collection Portal tags every upload to the criterion it supports, so the file shows exactly what's covered and what's still open.

Why US Immigration AI?
Built for Evidence-Heavy Immigration Cases
The platform is built around how immigration filings work, not adapted from general legal case management software. That shows up in how it organizes an EB-1A file by regulatory criterion, not generic folder.
Security Built to Firm Standards
The platform holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certification. Evidence-heavy EB-1A files stay protected without adding a separate security review to your process.
One System From Intake Through Filing
Evidence tagged at intake carries through document collection, drafting, and case assembly without anyone re-entering it. The file an attorney reviews is built from the same data the case started with.
How an EB-1A Case Moves From Intake to Filing
- Intake and Criteria Screening
Every new inquiry becomes an organized, attorney-ready summary within one conversation. That summary comes from mapping intake questions directly to the ten regulatory criteria.
- Document Collection by Criterion
Clients upload evidence through the secure portal. Each file is tagged to the criterion it supports as it arrives.
- Petition Letter and Form Drafting
The I-140 and supporting petition letter draft from the tagged evidence already on file. Everything stays organized criterion by criterion.
- Exhibit Index and Case Assembly
Exhibits are labeled, indexed, and paginated into a submission-ready packet. It updates automatically as the file changes.
- Attorney Review and Filing
A licensed attorney reviews the complete file and makes the final decision to file. The platform does not submit anything on its own.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Does the platform decide if a case qualifies for the EB-1A visa?
No. The platform organizes and tags evidence against the ten regulatory criteria. Whether a specific case meets the extraordinary-ability standard is a legal determination made by a licensed attorney.
Does an attorney review every case before it's filed?
Yes, always. Nothing moves toward submission without a licensed attorney's review and sign-off.
Does an EB-1A petition need a U.S. employer to sponsor it?
No. EB-1A is a self-petition category, so it doesn't require an employer sponsor or a labor certification (PERM).
Is my client data secure?
Yes. The platform holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certification, with multi-factor authentication, role-based access control, and audit logs on every file. AI processing runs on a zero-data-retention basis: documents are read only to complete the task at hand, never used to train models, and never shared across firms.
How does document collection work for EB-1A cases?
Through a secure client portal. Uploads are sorted by what they're meant to support as they arrive, instead of landing in a general folder.
Are RFE responses and case amendments supported?
Yes. Documents added later, including an RFE response, are tagged to the criterion they address. They flow into the same organized case record, so the file stays consistent from the first filing through any follow-up.
Does the platform file the case with USCIS?
No. It organizes and drafts the petition; your attorney decides when and whether to file. The software doesn't submit anything on its own.
What does an EB-1A case cost on the platform?
US Immigration AI is priced at $97 per application or $997 per month for unlimited use.
Is premium processing available for EB-1A cases?
Yes. Premium processing on Form I-140 guarantees USCIS acts within 15 business days, for an added fee. That's a response, not an automatic approval. Standard processing can take several months to over a year, depending on the service center.
