Case Summary:

At North America Immigration Law Group, we recently received an EB-1B approval for a Senior Research Chemist in the field of Chemistry. The beneficiary’s outstanding ability, highly skilled background, and impressive record of achievement provided a strong case for his EB-1B petition. His specialized research has focused on metal organic frameworks and fire retardant materials. His research work had resulted in 7 peer-reviewed scientific articles, and numerous presentations at national and international conferences. He had also reviewed 24 manuscripts for at least 10 distinctive, internationally-circulated journals at the time we filed the case. Furthermore, the beneficiary had a total of 61 citations to his work by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of his work. The petitioner in this case was a private company. The significance of the beneficiary’s research is confirmed in the following quote by an independent recommender, “The second accomplishment was his development of a new conversion methodology that turns 2- hydroxymethy phenol into 2- hydroxybenzyl phosphonates at room temperature. This allows for several new flame retardant molecules to be designed and synthesized, a stunning development hat impacts every researcher of modern flame- retardant chemical compounds. [Client] proved the usefulness of this methodology when he synthesized another more efficient flame –retardant to be used with commercial epoxy that can be produced cost-efficiently. This particular molecule is currently being prepared for customer trials and will soon be found in consumer electronics worldwide.” It was our goal to prove that this beneficiary qualified for classification as an outstanding professor or researcher given the international recognition for his outstanding achievements. With the proof and documentation that we provided, his case was approved in just one month and seven days.
