To win an extraordinary ability case requires extensive documentation and excellent petition skills of which we at Chen Immigration Law Associates have demonstrated by our impressive approval rates of EB1-A cases.
When petitioning a client whose work is in the business realm we at Chen Immigration Law Associates focus on highlighting the client’s leadership experience, and contributions towards their respective field. Unlike cases whose clients are researchers, we must use both quantitative and qualitative data to ensure a swift and decisive approval. We did this by showcasing our client’s documented record of articles regarding significant work that have appeared in major media outlets. In this case our client was published materials about him in business media outlets including Forbes magazine, USA Today, and BusinessWeek. Moreover, we used the fact that our client’s net salary was among the top of their field’s highest percentage to claim the criterion of “high salary and remuneration.”
In addition, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates proved that our client demonstrated extraordinary ability by drafting six independent advisory opinions from industry experts who have not worked with our client, but were rather were familiar with his work through his contributions to the field and international reputation. When drafting these letters we focus on obtaining recommendations that highlight on the indispensability of our client’s work with regard to the development of the field of business that they were associated with.
We at Chen Immigration Law Associates are skilled in assessing each client’s individual needs and presenting them to ensure that the strengths of the client are clear and concise. Finally, drawing upon this skill and experience, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates cited relevant AAO (Administrative Appeals Office) decisions to further document the evidence necessary to gain approval for this client’s EB1A petition.
Using this proven strategy, while correctly articulating the importance surrounding this client’s valued work, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates were able to secure approval for this petition on March 21st, 2013.
