If the foreign company hired me 2 years ago, but as an analyst, and only 6 months as a manager, EB-1C?

The EB-1C visa is aimed at executives and managers of multinational companies, requiring that the applicant has worked in that capacity for at least one continuous year within the last three years before filing the petition.

Therefore, to qualify under this category, it is necessary to prove significant experience in a managerial or executive position outside the United States. In the case presented, if the hiring occurred two years ago and you worked only 6 months as a manager, with the remainder of the period as an analyst, it would be unlikely to meet the requirement of at least one year of work in a managerial or executive role.

Experience accumulated as an analyst is generally not considered equivalent to a managerial position for the purposes of this type of visa. It is crucial to note that the correct application of eligibility criteria depends on a complete analysis of the professional history and how each experience fits the guidelines of the United States immigration services.

Therefore, it is highly recommended that you seek guidance from immigration specialists who can review your situation individually and help identify whether there are other visa alternatives suitable for your profile or if it is possible to adjust the petition to meet the requirements.

Always remember the importance of strictly following U.S. immigration laws and seeking advice from reliable sources to avoid falling victim to scams or misleading offers that promise results without proper analysis and proof of the requirements. This clarification is for informational purposes only and does not replace personalized legal consultation to evaluate all aspects of your case.
