Kenyan applicants for the EB-1A visa will be subject to the new DHS protocols for accessing CHRI. While not specifically targeted, the general increase in vetting rigor may slightly extend the overall timeline for visa approval.
Kenyan applicants will see a rise in the cost of the I-907 form. This affects the affordability of expedited processing for high-skilled Kenyan professionals.
Kenya's world-class athletes often qualify for EB-1A status. This clarification helps them and their agents better organize evidence of major prize winnings and athletic rankings to meet the 'extraordinary ability' definition more efficiently.
Kenyan professionals will need to provide more comprehensive evidence to meet the heightened vetting standards, as USCIS moves toward a more critical evaluation of EB-1A criteria.
Kenyan nationals filing for extraordinary ability visas will be subject to the USCIS inflation adjustment. The impact is a straightforward increase in the cost of the immigration process.
