US Immigration from Togo

Some J1 VISA holders, instead of applying for J1 VISA waiver, did apply for O1 directly. While Exchange Visitor Skills vary from one country to the other, what are the chance of obtaining O1 visa without applying for J1 waiver?

This sounds like a bypass for J1 waiver, but to get the consultation letter?

Any experience to share will be appreciated.

I filed for my children they are 15 and 10 years old. They have arrived and up to date, about one and half month and I haven't received any notice from immigration service, I am wondering if I have to pay any money again apart from the one I paid before they to the interview. Secondly, are they going to receive a green card or naturalization certificate? Thanks
