Success Stories: A Postdoctoral Fellow Secured EB-1A Approval in Just 6 Days with Our Coherent Petition packet, Special thanks to PP
Client’s Testimonial:
“Great thanks! I really appreciate your help in the process.”
On April 7th, 2021, we received another EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) approval for a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Field of Biomedical Research (Approval Notice).
General Field: Biomedical Research
Position at the Time of Case Filing: Postdoctoral Fellow
Country of Origin: China
State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Massachusetts
Approval Notice Date: April 7th, 2021
Processing Time: 6 days (Premium Processing Requested)
The USCIS found our client, a postdoctoral fellow from China, to be eligible for the EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) visa category. The fact that his research on the transcription regulators that contribute to host immunity in sepsis addresses some of our nation’s most pressing issues, including the treatment of cancer and Alzheimer’s disease, both of which are extremely prevalent in the modern era, established his way for EB-1A approval. Before countersigning the retainer agreement, North America Immigration Law Group thoroughly reviewed his credentials to ascertain his veracity. After the evaluation, we were certain of his credibility and agreed to the attorney-client relationship. We began to build his case by adding the following key points:
We included the 10 peer-reviewed scientific articles he published. Not only did he conduct valuable research, but his work is considered majorly significant by the editors of the top journals in the field. These highly selective journals have consistently accepted his research for publication, noting that he is among the best in the field.
Also, we observed that his publications have been cited by many researchers in at least 34 countries, confirming that these publications are widely relied upon in the field of biomedical research. We noted the 282 citations his work gathered from the leading researchers, at a much higher rate than those of other researchers in the field, thereby implying our client’s elevated standing in this area.
Besides, our client’s vast knowledge led him to conduct 8 reviews for highly acclaimed journals. The provided evidence validates that our client is well-recognized and an important source of information for fellow scholars.
Furthermore, we observed that his study has received funding as well from the National Institutes of Health, Alzheimer’s Association. This funding supports projects that “seek fundamental knowledge about the nature and behavior of living systems”. Hence, his research clearly has helped to improve the tools used in his field.
In addition, we added four recommendation letters in order to strengthen his case further, and these letters did confirm our client’s work to be essential in the United States. One of our client’s recommenders stated:
“[Client] has gained critical insight into the mechanisms of cancer, which is of translational value to the development and improvement of therapies for the condition, and his efforts are a boon to the United States. Considering this, his research aligns with the interests of the nation and must continue.”
Fortunately, our client received his EB-1A approval in just 6 days as he upgraded his case to PP service. Premium Processing is a paid option offered by the USCIS that allows petitioners to enjoy accelerated adjudication (the case will be processed within 15 days instead of 9-12 months). PP service and our team’s great efforts helped him to get one more step closer to a green card. It was a pleasure helping him with his EB1A case and thank him for trusting us for his NIW application now.
