I'm on an O-1 Visa at the moment and thinking about going for a green card. What's the best path way to do this?

As you probably know, although the criteria are nearly identical, the standards are different, with the evidentiary standard higher for the EB1A green card category. So I would have an attorney evaluate the O-1 petition to see if it's strong enough to support an EB1A. Almost always, if the trajectory of your business or work is up, it's better to wait to build up a stronger EB1A case.
