Can I submit flyers and posters as evidence of display of my work in the EB-1?

Yes. Flyers and posters can be part of the evidence package for the EB-1, but they rarely sustain a case on their own. They work best as part of a broader set of materials that contextualizes and demonstrates the reach and impact of your work’s display.

The key is documented context. A standalone poster says little; that same poster tied to a recognized exhibition, with clear information about the event, gains strength as evidence. It helps to document details such as the venue, occasion, audience reached, and any coverage that attests to the significance of the event.

To strengthen this type of evidence, consider including:

• Description of the event or exhibition and the audience it reached.
• Media coverage, reviews, or testimonials about the show.
• Records linking the materials to a recognized initiative in your field.

In the EB-1, what matters is robust and verifiable evidence. Present these materials as part of a coherent portfolio and, to confirm current criteria, consult the USCIS guidelines and, if possible, a qualified specialist.
