Success Stories: EB-1A Approved for an Assistant Project Scientist in California in the Field of Molecular Biology
Client’s Testimonial:
Thank you very much for all your support and help and I am very much pleased that my I-140 was approved. Thank you!
On February 23rd, 2015, We Received Another EB1-A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) Approval for an Assistant Project Scientist in the Field of Molecular Biology (Approval Notice)
Position at the Time of Case Filing: Assistant Project Scientist
Country of Origin: India
Service Center: Nebraska Service Center (NSC)
State of Residence at the Time of Filing: California
Approval Notice Date: February 23rd, 2015
Processing Time: 1 month, 7 days (6 days after Requesting Premium Processing)
In this case we were offered the opportunity to work with a molecular biologist from India whose highly specialized work focused on investigating the molecular mechanisms that are involved in the suppression of genomic DNA instability that leads to premature aging and cancer. He had produced 15 peer-reviewed journal articles and given numerous presentations at national and international conferences; altogether our client’s work had received no fewer than 268 citations from independent and leading researchers at prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, showing its major significance within his field. He had also reviewed 10 manuscripts for 2 prominent, internationally-circulated journals. An independent recommender endorsed our client’s superior level of expertise: “The functional interplay between these important helicases is one of [Client’s] most significant discoveries, one for which he is also well-recognized…it is patently obvious that [Client] has attained a high level of achievement, singling him out as an outstanding young researcher.” It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that he sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of Molecular Biology, and that his continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. With the proof and documentation that we provided, his case was approved in just 1 month and 7 days (6 days after Requesting Premium Processing).
