The government thinks Boy Throb is a meme 😭

Darshan’s O-1 case has been hit with a Request for Evidence (RFE) and possible denial, despite the group’s genuine career and a huge “Throbber” fanbase.

Many people assume that O-1 visa approvals depend on viral moments or millions of followers.

Actually, it’s mostly about your petition clearly connecting your achievements, supported by strong evidence, to the O-1 legal standard.

Watch this video and reach out to our team if you’d like to discuss your own visa options.

The EB-1A extraordinary visa, often called the “Einstein Visa”, isn’t just for celebrities.

Senior Immigration Attorney Jamie Bailey explains what that actually means.

If you’re thinking about applying, you can book a consultation with our team to talk through your options.
