Case Summary:

Another exceptional client that Chen Immigration Law Associates had the pleasure of working with is a research scientist from India with a specialization in biomedical engineering and regenerative medicine who was seeking employment at a small company that specializes in medical devices and biomedical engineering. The company is very small and only employed three full-time researchers. But, the company had developed advanced and original findings in the area of biomedical engineering. The company acted as the sponsoring employer in this case, proving their ability to pay the beneficiary’s salary and their proven track record of achievement in the field of biomedical engineering. We submitted substantial evidence that the beneficiary had published 19 papers in international journals, had two registered patents, had acted a judge of the work of others through his review work, and had garnered 133 citations to his work from researchers around the world, demonstrating the international recognition for his work. Additionally, we submitted several strong recommendation letters from experts and researchers in the shared field confirming the beneficiary’s significant contributions and international recognition as an outstanding researcher in the field of endeavor. His petition was swiftly approved in two months without RFE (Request for Evidence).
