In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Research Scientist from China in the field of Material Science. She had conducted her research in the highly specialized area of nanomaterial fabrication and characterization. Her work had resulted in 11 peer-reviewed scientific articles, 1 book chapter, and numerous presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that her case was filed, her publications had been cited at least 189 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 29 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. Her superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “Concerning the massive demand for alternative energy development, we need badly the applied research that can make such development possible. This is where researchers, such as [Client], are invaluable in today’s scientific community… [Client’s] research encompasses some of the most cutting-edge technology in the field today, and her ability to actively contribute to such technology is extremely impressive.” 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 Material Science, 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 2 months and 5 days (8 days after Requesting Premium Processing).
