Okay so, my immigration lawyer has been working on my O1 case for months now, we got all the required materials such as recommendation letters, USCIS forms, employment contract, future itinerary and other supporting materials such as reviews, cd covers, programs, etc.
Now, as we are getting ready for filing, my lawyer all of a sudden says, there is one last requirement and that is a Peer Review Letter from the American Federation of Musicians.
i have never heard of this. i have had P visas in the past (which require pretty much the same support materials) and never had that kind of a letter. such a letter is pretty expensive and i am concerned that my lawyer just wants the money...
can someone tell me if i really do NEED this letter as a musician applying for an O1.
Thanks a lot....
