Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a software engineer from China in the field of computer science.  He had conducted his research in the highly specialized area of the development of innovative wireless sensor networks with novel integrated systems and protocols. His work had resulted in 14 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 191 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 86 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals.  His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client’s] research has been influential even beyond his own field… he especially has benefitted those working in environmental science by providing the ability to monitor hazardous volcanic activity, as well as in military applications where it is necessary to have a longer network lifetime and more durable sensor network in general…[Client’s] qualifications far exceed those of his peers, and for that reason, he has gained my enthusiastic support in his research.” 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 computer science, 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 22 days (8 days after requesting Premium Processing).
