Production company sought O-1A classification for actor in motion pictures and television. Visa category is O-1B (arts/entertainment), not O-1A (sciences, education, business, athletics). Decision indicates O-1 classification but actor achievement in film falls outside O-1A scope. Classified as ineligible for stated visa category.

A music production studio petitioned for a composer under O-1, first framed as extraordinary achievement in motion pictures and television, then claimed on appeal as extraordinary ability in the arts. The AAO dismissed the appeal because three criteria were not met and the required management organization consultation was missing.

Actor and production crew member petitioned for O-1B (MPTV) nonimmigrant classification by an agent. Petitioner claimed eligibility under O-1B (MPTV) criteria but failed to meet evidentiary requirements. On appeal, petitioner attempted to switch to O-1B (Arts) classification, which was improper because the beneficiary intended to perform services in motion picture and television industry.

Education counseling business petitioned for school and career counselor beneficiary's O-1A classification. Petitioner claimed seven criteria; director and AAO found none met. Letters lacked evidence of major field significance. Salary was average, not elevated. Appeal dismissed without final merits determination.
