What this typically includes
Assessing eligibility against the O-1 criteria, developing the strategy and exhibits, drafting the petition letter and the I-129 with supporting evidence (awards, press, recommendation letters, contracts, an itinerary), obtaining the advisory opinion, and responding to any Request for Evidence (RFE). USCIS filing fees and optional premium processing are separate.
The O-1 extraordinary-ability visa is governed by uniform federal immigration law, so the eligibility standard and USCIS fees are the same whether you work in Hawaii or anywhere else — what varies by location is only the field office or consulate that processes your case. You need a U.S. employer or agent to petition, but they can be anywhere.
O-1 attorney fees are a flat legal fee (commonly $4,000–$8,000) for the evidence-heavy petition, separate from the government’s USCIS filing fees. Because the law is federal, the petitioner can use an immigration attorney anywhere — you are not limited to Hawaii.
