(2) An alien who has a demonstrated record of extraordinary achievement in motion picture and/or television productions, and who is coming to the United States to continue work in the area of extraordinary achievement; or

(3) An alien who is coming to the United States to perform in the motion picture and television industry. DHS uses the following definitions in adjudicating O petitions:

(a) “Extraordinary ability” in the sciences, education, business, or athletics means a level of expertise indicating that the person is one of the small percentage who has risen to the very top of his or her field of endeavor.

(b) “Extraordinary ability” in the field of arts and “extraordinary achievement” with respect to motion picture and television productions share an identical standard, i.e., a high level of achievement in the field which is evidenced by a degree of skill and recognition substantially above that ordinarily encountered to the extent that the person is recognized as outstanding, leading, or well-known in his or her field of endeavor.
