The absence of a website does not, by itself, disqualify a petition under the executive and managerial subcategory of EB-1 (the EB-1C). A website is only one of many ways to show that a company exists and operates: what matters is demonstrating the legitimacy and strength of its operations, and that can be done through several different avenues.
When there is no website, the weight falls on corporate documentation. Business records, financial statements, contracts, official correspondence, and evidence of participation in the industry all help establish that the organization is real and active. Consistency across these documents is what gives the case its credibility during review.
- Gather business records and financial statements that confirm the company’s operations.
- Compile contracts, agreements, and correspondence that show real market activity.
- Provide a clear and well-supported explanation for why there is no website, keeping everything consistent.
In short, it is possible to build a strong case even without a website, as long as the evidence holds together as a whole. It is worth checking the current requirements with USCIS and organizing the documentation with a specialist.
