The client that we had the pleasure of working with in this case was a Scientist from China in the field of chemistry. His specialized research had covered materials and energy, including crystal engineering, organometallic, catalysis, polymer, organosilicon chemistry, and colloidal and interfacial science. This work had resulted in at least 10 peer-reviewed scientific articles and numerous presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that his case was filed, these publications been cited at least 290 times by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of his work. He had also conducted at least 17 paper reviews for journals in his field. The benefits of his research is confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “In addition, he has the kind of pioneering spirit that is requisite in order to continue advancing our field, and, also, to impact a vast array of applications in the manufacturing sector.” 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 chemistry, 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 22 days.
