Secure Your EB-1 Green Card: Judging Expertise

Fast-Track Your U.S. Residency

Welcome to the Law Offices of Chris M. Ingram’s EB-1 Green Card series! We’re thrilled to guide top professionals to permanent U.S. residency through the Judging category.

Judging Defined

Per 8 C.F.R. 204.5(h)(3)(iv), this category requires evidence of judging others’ work in your or an allied field, individually or on a panel. USCIS can’t impose extra restrictions, as confirmed by Buletini v. INS and Kazarian v. USCIS (2010).

Qualifying as a Judge

Judging roles—like award panels or peer reviews—showcase your expertise. No prior experience? Seek opportunities! Our clients, like a journalist who joined a prestigious panel, have succeeded by acting proactively.

Building a Strong Case

Meticulous documentation (invitations, panel details) and prominent co-panelists turn this subjective category into a solid win. We prioritize objective criteria but make judging compelling.
