In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a postdoctoral fellow from China in the field of materials science. He had conducted his research in the highly specialized area of designing and demonstrating different electromagnetic materials with exotic optical properties. His work had resulted in 31 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 934 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 14 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client’s] outstanding record of achievement in electromagnetic [materials] is rare among other researchers in the field… I firmly believe that [Client] is uniquely gifted with a myriad of expertise in [materials] research, and he is among the elite group of talents that the United States should retain.” 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 materials 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 28 days (12 days after requesting Premium Processing).
