Case Summary:
A well known researcher from India contacted North America Immigration Law Group (WeGreened.com) to help him file an EB-1B (Outstanding Professors and Researchers) petition. Seeing that EB-1B is an employer-sponsored visa category, he had to garner his employer’s full support before hiring us. Once his employer provided us with the relevant paperwork required to file the petition, our attorneys and support staff immediately got to work putting together a strong EB-1B case for our client. By the time we were ready to file the case, we had accumulated a wealth of information pertaining to our client’s professional and academic background. Here are the selected bits of information that we included in the petition packet:
- Peer Review Experience: At the time of filing, our client had already participated in 20 reviews of highly acclaimed journals and conferences. This remarkable record showcased his capabilities as a leading researcher in the field of analytical chemistry.
- Citation and Publication Count: Thanks to Google Scholar and other similar references, we determined that our client’s 18 peer-reviewed scientific articles, 1 book chapter, and 2 granted patents had gathered 430 citations.
- Research Projects: In order to prove to the USCIS that our client’s work is of inherent value to the United States, we first had to understand every aspect of it. We started by reviewing his research on mass spectrometry and metabolomics. We also established that his research addresses some of our nation’s most pressing issues in understanding the molecular mechanisms at the heart of various biochemical processes pertinent to diagnostics as well as burgeoning biotechnologies.
- Testimonials: To further fortify our client’s EB-1B petition, we included recommendation letters signed by other experts in the field who were familiar with his work. One of them stated, “It is evident that [client’s] contributions make him an inherently important researcher. His work on the detection of metabolic markers related to diseases falls in an area of intense demand. The worldwide infectious disease diagnostics market is steadily growing because of the rising prevalence of infectious and chronic diseases. The global immunodiagnostic market is projected to garner $17,836 million by 2022.”
