Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Product Development Engineer from India in the field of Electrical Engineering.  He had conducted his research in the highly specialized areas of the development of improved sensor technologies for various appliances, the enhancement of search algorithms to improve the navigational abilities of unmanned vehicles, and the development of control schemes designed to reduce fuel consumption and pollutant emission of diesel engines. His work had resulted in 5 peer-reviewed articles printed in conference proceedings, 8 approved US patents, 2 published patent applications, and 9 German and European patents; at the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 53 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 10 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals.  His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client] developed a fast and accurate plant model to predict various engine states and parameters during any engine operating condition. Plant modeling consists of identifying the key physical equations governing the system and finding simplifying assumptions that make the equations tractable for theoretical and computer analysis without sacrificing accuracy.” 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 5 months and 1 day.
