Success Stories: EB-1A Approved for a Research Associate in Arizona in the Field of Molecular Biology
Client’s Testimonial:
I posted my case on mitbbs.com, recommending your law firm. A lot of people sent me messages to inquire about attorneys and I strongly recommended your firm. Originally, I was also referred by my friend who felt very satisfied with working with you; I feel the same. Thank you very much for your contribution, which allowed my I-140 to be approved so quickly.
On February 4th, 2015, We Received Another EB1-A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) Approval for a Research Associate in the Field of Molecular Biology (Approval Notice)
Position at the Time of Case Filing: Research Associate
Country of Origin: China
Service Center: Nebraska Service Center (NSC)
State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Arizona
Approval Notice Date: February 4th, 2015
Processing Time: 12 days (5 days after Requesting Premium Processing)
Our client in this case was a molecular biologist from China who had made numerous findings in the area of plant pathogen genetics. Her work had resulted in 7 peer-reviewed scientific articles and numerous presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that her case was filed, her publications had been cited at least 139 times by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of her work. She had also reviewed 6 manuscripts for 2 distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. An independent recommender remarked upon her superior expertise: “[Client’s] work is of more than just academic interest, as the issues she investigates are topical for food and agriculture industries in the United States, Northern European countries, Canada and China…without [Client’s] methods at our disposal, experts would be unable to distinguish famine-inducing pathogens from otherwise benign, even symbiotic oomycete organisms.” It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that she sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of Molecular Biology, and that her continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. With the proof and documentation that we provided, her case was approved in 12 days (5 days after requesting Premium Processing).
