From eligibility to filing

Analysis, drafts, and response tools for talent, work, and visitor cases.

AI document analysis

Upload evidence for criterion scoring on talent routes, or checklist and refusal-risk analysis on visitor visas — strengths, gaps, and clear next steps.

One method, five systems

US, UK, EU, Canada, and Australia — talent petitions and visitor checklists scored against that system’s rules, not a generic visa article.

Readiness & case review

Track criterion coverage or visitor checklist completeness, catch inconsistencies, and run attorney-style review on paid plans.

Case preparation

Guided questionnaire, saved case facts, linked evidence, and case chat — keep intake in one place.

AI draft generators

Generate reference letters, narratives, and exhibit indexes on Starter and Pro — then edit and export to Word.

Eligibility & response tools

Public eligibility check for talent, work, and visitor visas before a case, plus help answering an RFE when more evidence is requested.

How we prepare a case

One method for talent petitions and visitor checklists: country, visa, legal test, evidence, and official source. Coverage across five immigration systems is proof of that method.

  1. 1. Country

    Start in the immigration system

    Each country has controlling rules. US routes begin here — not as unrelated visa articles.

    Open

  2. 2. Visa

    Pick the route

    Example: US O-1A. The same preparation method applies to talent petitions and visitor checklists.

    Open

  3. 3. Criterion

    Map the legal test

    Every route breaks into official criteria — for O-1A, that includes nationally recognized awards.

    Open

  4. 4. Evidence

    Attach typical proof

    Each criterion names the document types that usually support it — for awards, an award certificate.

    Open

  5. 5. Source

    Cite the authority

    Regulation, agency policy, and precedent when the guides rely on it. Scores are not government decisions.
