Priced Out of H-1B? Get the free O-1 guide

H-1B sponsorship changed overnight when the government added a $100,000 filing fee in September 2025, and a lot of people are hearing 'O-1' for the first time because of it. This free guide breaks down what O-1 actually requires, what it really costs once every fee is added up, and the one thing about it, job mobility, that catches almost everyone off guard, so you can decide if it's worth pursuing before you spend anything on an attorney.

• The real, itemized cost: government fees plus typical attorney fees, not a vague "call us for pricing" answer
• Why O-1 isn't just "the easier H-1B," and what USCIS is actually looking for
• The one catch about changing employers almost nobody explains before you accept an O-1 offer
• What it means for your spouse and children, including the one thing O-3 status doesn't let them do
• The difference between a recommendation letter and the one letter USCIS actually requires
