EB-1 Visa: What is the 'Einstein visa' that agents are ‘guaranteeing'? Eligibility, categories — All you need to know
EB-1 visa: As the Donald Trump administration's crackdown on visas intensifies, attention is shifting to the EB-1 visa – with the category being touted as a suitable alternative to the H-1B visa, for those who meet the eligibility for the same. Although the EB-1 visa – colloquially known as the 'Einstein Visa' is reserved for people with 'extraordinary talent' — a report by The Print claims that a growing network of agents offering "guaranteed EB-1 visas" is flooding platforms like LinkedIn, Facebook, and Telegram. As per the report, agents are offering ghostwriting research papers, manufacturing acclaim— all of which give researchers an edge in their visa application. What is this EB-1 visa that everyone is talking about? What makes a person eligible? Livemint explains. Colloquially known as the 'Einstein Visa', the EB-1 category is reserved for people who are 'aliens of extraordinary ability', are 'outstanding professor or researchers'. Donald Trump often uses the term "alien" to refer to non-citizens, especially undocumented immigrants. His usage is typically in the context of border security, illegal immigration, and deportation policies. The EB-1 visa, meant for the people with 'extraordinary abilities' spans across the three categories, each having its respective set of 'evidence' that a person needs to prove: Extraordinary Ability Outstanding professors and researchers Certain multinational manager or executive EB-1 Category Who can apply Eligibility Extraordinary Ability Applicant must be able to demonstrate extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics through sustained national or international acclaim Evidence of one-time achievement such as Pulitzer, Oscar is required, or evidence of 3 of the following: Receipt of lesser nationally/internationally known prizes or awards of excellence Articles or media coverage about applicant in prominent industry publications or major news outlets Documentation showing applicant was appointed to judge others' work, either independently or as part of a panel Evidence of original and significant contributions respective field Proof of authoring scholarly articles published in respected journals or major industry media Records showing work has been featured in notable exhibitions or public showcases Applicant has held a leading or essential role in reputable and distinguished organizations Documentation of high earnings or substantial compensation compared to others in the same profession Proof of commercial success in the performing arts Outstanding Professors and Researchers One must demonstrate international recognition for outstanding achievements in a particular academic field. Must have at least 3 years experience in teaching or research in that academic arena. Must be entering United States in order to pursue tenure or tenure track teaching or a comparable research position at a university, institution of higher education, or private employer. Applicant needs to meet two of the following criteria: Proof that you've received major awards or honors in recognition of your exceptional accomplishments Documentation of membership in professional associations that require notable achievements for entry Articles or publications written by others that discuss applicant's academic work in recognised journals or outlets Evidence of evaluating peers' works either independently or as part of a review panel, within your academic or related field Proof of original and impactful research or scientific contributions to the applicant's discipline Documentation showing the person has authored scholarly books or articles published in internationally circulated academic journals Certain Multinational manager or executive Must have been doing business for at least 1 year, and have a qualifying relationship to the entity the person worked for outside the US, and intend to employ you in a managerial or executive capacity. Employer must be a US employer and intends to employ the person in a managerial or executive capacity. For those applying under the Extraordinary Ability category, you need to apply yourself by filing a Form I-140, Petition for Alien Worker, states the USCIS. For the Outstanding Professors and Researchers category, the US employer is required to fill Form I-140, Petition for Alien Worker. As part of the application process, the employer is also required to demonstrate a continuing ability to pay the offered wage such as annual report, or federal income tax returns. For Multinational Manager or Executive, the US employer is required to file USCIS Form I-140, Petition for Alien Worker. The employer must also be able to demonstrate a continuing ability to pay the offered wage, as in the case of Outstanding Professors and Researchers. Although the criteria for EB-1 visa is slightly more demanding than the H-1B visa, the program is a standard means of acquiring a green card to be a US resident. With the tightening visa rules, the EB-1 visa provides a suitable alternative to H-1B visa for those who meet the required eligibility criteria.

Register early for SST to avoid extra costs, tax expert tells businesses
KUALA LUMPUR: Businesses that fall under the scope of the expanded Sales and Service Tax (SST) should register early to avoid extra costs during the transition period. Customs Department announced that businesses could voluntarily register for SST from today and be registered from July 1. The mandatory registration deadline is Aug 31. The expanded SST kicks in on Sept 1. Henesh Kannaa, executive director of TRATAX Sdn Bhd, a tax consulting firm based in Kuala Lumpur, said it would be financially beneficial for businesses to register before the Aug 31 deadline. "Due to technical reasons, some businesses are better off registering sooner than later," he said in a LinkedIn post. Citing the example of a manufacturer that exports all its finished goods, Henesh said previously, if the finished goods were exempt, this manufacturer could remain unregistered under SST but still benefit from the B4 exemption, a provision that allows for import or purchase of taxable materials without paying sales tax. However, with the inclusion of more goods under the taxable category beginning September, these businesses would now be required to register for SST, he said. Under the new rules, registered manufacturers might qualify for the C1 exemption, which similarly allows for tax-free acquisition of raw materials, he said. "But here's the catch for any imports or purchases made in July and August, it appears that the manufacturer may be ineligible for both B4 and C1 exemptions if it has not registered early. "This could lead to higher input costs during these two months solely due to the technicalities of the SST law," Henesh said. To avoid extra costs, he advised manufacturers to register for SST by June 30 so that they could get the C1 exemption from July 1. He said service providers could benefit from early registration, especially those involved in business-to-business (B2B) transactions. "Some service businesses may want to register early to avoid breaking the chain of B2B exemptions. "A careful assessment is needed to weigh the pros and cons of registering by June 30 versus waiting until the Aug 31 deadline. "The right choice really depends on each business's circumstances." Henesh said early registration is only available to businesses that are not currently SST-registered. For those already registered, the expanded scope will automatically take effect on July 1, with no option to delay compliance to September, he said.
