Success Stories: PP Allows Chinese Postdoctoral Researcher with 143 Citations in the Field of Polymer Chemistry to Receive EB-1A Approval in 8 Days (No RFE)
Client’s Testimonial:
“Thank you so much!”
On July 7th, 2016, we received another EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) approval for a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Field of Polymer Chemistry (Approval Notice).
General Field: Polymer Chemistry
Position at the Time of Case Filing: Postdoctoral Researcher
Country of Origin: China
Service Center: Texas Service Center (TSC)
State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Massachusetts
Approval Notice Date: July 7th, 2016
Processing Time: 8 Days (Premium Processing Requested)
Case Summary:
With a doctorate in chemistry and many years of experience immersed in the field of polymer chemistry, our client’s credentials made him a great fit for EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability). He hired North America Immigration Law Group (NAILG) to file an I-140 petition under this visa category. As he opted for Premium Processing (PP), he received news that his petition had been approved just 8 days after filing. Not just that, the USCIS did not issue a Request for Evidence (RFE), proving our firm’s expertise at building strong cases for our clients.
Client’s Credentials:
Our main goal was to prove to the USCIS that our client is an asset to the United States and that he should be allowed to continue his work unhindered in the country. We did this by detailing his investigations that use chemistry and nanotechnology to develop novel probes for cancer detection, develop novel nanoparticle formulation for cancer therapeutics, and utilize polymer chemistry for atherosclerosis management and drug delivery applications. We demonstrated that our client’s findings address some of the nation’s most pressing issues in understanding and promoting the biomedical applications of nanotechnology. To strengthen our argument, we included recommendation letters volunteered by our client’s peers, one of whom stated that “All of these experiences have allowed [Client] to become one of the best informed scientists in this area with all of the unique tools necessary for completing high quality research.” Besides details of our client’s work and proof of peer support, we highlighted the 15 scientific articles and 1 patent to his name alongside the 143 citations gathered from his work. Furthermore, we listed the nearly three dozen times our client judged the work of his peers for numerous scientific journals.
Attaining an EB-1A petition approval is no easy feat but with the right credentials and legal strategy, anything is possible. We are very pleased to have had the chance to help such an accomplished researcher get one step closer to a green card, and we wish him the best as he adjusts his status for permanent residence.
