How are you doing in the other criteria?

Press isn’t always critical 

If you do need to go down the PR route, the fastest way in most cases is to try to get press in your country. In my case, my story and achievements are more unique in Spain than in the US. I asked founder friends in my country for intros to PR firms

Thanks @ted for the tag!

@winny, agree with @iggy here! I used to work for immigration law firm and we focused on O1 and EB1, for a visa press isn’t going to be a deal breaker especially if you already have most of other criteria + strong recommendations (and if you still wanna get some articles, even small mentions and quotes help, so shouldn’t be hard to get) 

And you can definitely start building up all the press for the future if you wanna apply for EB1 green card after, that’s where they definitely pay way more attention to press, and you will need all the in-depth articles, interviews etc

I have like 7/8 out of 8 criteria with press being my weakest one at the moment. I also don’t really have a country/home haven’t for 7 years or so
