Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the pleasure of working with was a Software Developer from India in the field of Electrical Engineering. His specialized research has focused on the development of novel techniques and algorithms for speech and signal enhancement. Specifically, his research addresses some of our nation’s most pressing issues in ensuring the robustness and usability of our communication networks. His work had resulted in at least 22 peer-reviewed journal and conference publications, 1 book chapter, and 6 pending U.S. patents. At the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 195 times by researchers around the world, serving as apparent and objective evidence of his major influence and impact on the field of endeavor, in addition to his sustained international acclaim. He had also conducted numerous manuscript reviews for at least 4 distinctive, internationally circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from a recommender, “His work has focused on effective noise suppression in speech communication systems. The addition of noise in a speech system is distracting and limits the effectiveness of speech communication, making [his] work of extreme value not only to our company, but to all of us who rely on telecommunication. Additionally, as hands-free communication systems in cars become not only more desirable but also mandated, improving the speech recognition systems through noise-reduction become [sic] even more important.” 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 Electrical Engineering, 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 21 days.
