Case Summary:

In this case we were offered the opportunity to work with a cancer researcher from India whose highly specialized work focused on novel therapeutic approaches and the use of animal models to better understand the behaviors of cancer cells. He had produced 13 peer-reviewed journal articles, 1 book chapter, and 12 presentations at national and international conferences; altogether our client’s work had received no fewer than 391 citations from independent and leading researchers at prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, showing its major significance within his field. He had also reviewed 10 manuscripts for 6 prominent, internationally-circulated journals. An independent recommender endorsed our client’s superior level of expertise: “I have worked with many researchers over the course of my career, but few have stood out in the way that [Client] does. He in undoubtedly a very talented investigator, far superior to many others conducting work in the field.” 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 Cancer Research, 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 just 11 days (3 days after requesting Premium Processing).
