Team Unshackled
Unshackled Annual Conference: The Premier Event for EB-1A, EB-2 NIW, and O-1 Aspirants
Many don’t even make it to the petition stage because they’re paralyzed by uncertainty. What if the only thing standing between you and your green card was a room full of people who’ve already done it?
And the fastest way to move forward in the U.S. immigration game? → Proximity to people who've already won it.
So stop waiting on your next RFE. The experts are speaking. The community which consists of 30000+ members, showing up.
Why High-Skilled Immigrants Are Struggling
The talent is there. But is it built for clarity?
EB-1A Aspirants: That’s elite-tier talent: PhDs, researchers, tech leads, waiting years due to visa backlogs and subjective review standards.
EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver): It’s popular, especially post-2023, because it skips the PERM labor certification. Often self-petitioning founders and policy researchers, most struggle with proving “national interest” without traditional academic or government support. One denial can cost thousands and years.
O-1 Visa aspirants: While it’s an “extraordinary ability” visa, O-1s are often stuck without clear pathways to permanent residency. Many don’t realize they can transition to EB-1A but no one’s shown them how.
Add in visa retrogression, PERM delays, documentation nightmares, and the journey becomes overwhelming.
You're not just applying for a visa. The system is just designed for the persistent. But no one should walk this alone. That’s why the Unshackled Annual Conference 2025 exists. To close the knowledge gap, fast-track your plan, and put you face-to-face with people who’ve done it.
