Can I reuse my O-1 evidence for an EB-1A petition?
The awards, press, letters and project evidence carry over as a base, but they cannot simply be resubmitted. O-1 and EB-1A are separate filings judged against different standards, and EB-1A applies a higher bar on field-level impact, so most of the record needs targeted updating and strengthening. An O-1 approval does not predict an EB-1A approval.

Yes — extraordinary ability is one of the few employment-based categories that allows self-petitioning, because eligibility rests on the applicant's own record rather than on a specific job offer. Whether that record meets the standard is the separate and harder question.
