The O-1 angle

Work on real U.S. projects can become part of an O-1 record. For people who become long-term contributors and whose record fits, O1D Match may consider supporting an O-1 petition. That is a possibility, not a promise, and it is not part of this offer. To see where you stand today, take the free eligibility check or the free course at educate.o1dmatch.com.

Visa eligibility depends on each person's own record; no outcome is promised. This is a freelance contract role, not an offer of visa support, and nothing on this page is legal advice.
