In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a postdoctoral research associate from China in the field of chemical engineering. Specifically, our client’s specialized research has focused on catalysis. His work had resulted in 15 peer-reviewed scientific articles and numerous presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 171 times by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of his work. He had also reviewed 54 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client]’s work is cutting-edge and immensely vital to the sphere of materials science and technology, where his techniques greatly enhance catalyst research and development.” 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 chemical engineering, 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 3 months and 18 days.
