The O-1 nonimmigrant visa is for the individual who possesses extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics, or who has a demonstrated record of extraordinary achievement in the motion picture or television industry and has been recognized nationally or internationally for those achievements. This is a visa category that has a very high evidentiary standard, but it can be explored as a possible option for highly accomplished workers who do not get selected in the H-1B visa lottery.
