// SERVICES

Every pathway, one coordinated team.

From the case strategy itself to the media coverage that supports it, here's exactly what's included at each stage of working with Sparkin Advisory.

Sparkin Advisory is a consulting and coaching service, not a law firm. We help you build strategy, evidence, and a filing-ready case narrative. Nothing on this page is legal advice, and we do not represent clients before USCIS — when your case is ready, we coordinate the handoff to an independent, licensed immigration attorney of your choosing.

Self-Sponsored Green Card

EB1A Extraordinary Ability

The fastest self-sponsored green card route for STEM, product, finance, and health leaders with a national or international reputation. We run a gap analysis against all ten USCIS criteria — publications, awards, original contributions, media coverage, judging, high salary, memberships, and more — since you only need to meet three, plus a final merits review.

Check My Eligibility
  • Full 10-criteria gap analysis against your current record
  • Strategy plan for closing any missing criteria
  • Recommendation letter coordination and structuring
  • Filing-ready evidence package and case narrative for your immigration attorney
  • Guidance on optional premium processing for a 15-day I-140 decision
Skip PERM

EB2 National Interest Waiver

Align your STEM or research work with U.S. national interests to skip the labor certification (PERM) process entirely. We build your case around three requirements: substantial merit and national importance, a well-positioned advantage to advance the work, and a showing that a waiver benefits the U.S. more than the standard labor market test.

Check My Eligibility
  • National-importance framing built around your actual field
  • Agency and grant-letter sourcing to support your case
  • Citation and impact-record compilation
  • Typical build-to-filing window of 9–12 weeks
Bridge Visa

O1A Coaching & Consulting

A six-month program for professionals with extraordinary ability who want to work in the U.S. while their EB1A case is still being built. O1A carries no statutory maximum — it renews in increments with no cap on the number of extensions — and draws on similar evidence to EB1A: publications, awards, expert letters, and media coverage.

Check My Eligibility
  • Six-month structured coaching program
  • Evidence built to double as your future EB1A foundation
  • Renewable in three-year increments, no statutory cap
  • Coordinated hand-off into EB1A case-building when ready
Pre-Filing

Profile-Building Services

A typical 3–6 month engagement that maps your accomplishments to USCIS criteria before you ever file — so the filing itself becomes a formality rather than a gamble.

Start My Profile Review
  • Recommender identification and outreach coordination
  • Evidence organization mapped criterion-by-criterion
  • Letter structure guidance that keeps recommenders as the author
Public Record

Media & PR Support

Through our media partners, we help you build the third-party press record that judging panels and USCIS examiners weigh heavily — from a first byline to a recurring speaking circuit.

Talk To The Media Team
  • Custom publication pitch lists and outreach templates
  • Direct introductions to relevant journalists
  • Bylined article placement assistance
  • Speaking engagement and judging-role sourcing

// COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

How do I know which pathway — EB1A, NIW, or O1A — fits me?

That's exactly what the free evaluation is for. We review your background against the criteria for all three pathways and tell you honestly which one your current record supports, and what an O1A bridge might buy you in the meantime.

How long does an EB1A or NIW case take to build?

EB2 NIW cases typically move from intake to filing in 9–12 weeks. EB1A timelines vary more depending on how much profile-building is needed first — usually 3–6 months for the strongest cases.

Do you offer premium processing?

Premium processing is a USCIS program, not something we provide directly. When it's available for your case type, we'll flag it and help you and your attorney decide whether it's worth adding — it typically returns an I-140 decision within 15 calendar days.

What if I only need a single question answered?

Book a one-time 60-minute consultation. You'll get a senior advisor's read on your specific situation and a written set of next steps, with no obligation to continue.

Is Sparkin Advisory a law firm?

No. Sparkin Advisory provides immigration consulting, coaching, and case-preparation services. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice or legal representation. When your case is ready to file, we coordinate the handoff to an independent, licensed immigration attorney of your choosing.
