Client’s Testimonial:

“North America Immigration law group has immensely helped me navigate through the complexitites of petition filing. They were honest, to-the-point, and courteous in all the interactions. Most important to me was the subjective evaluation of credentials and guidance on where I fit in the visa categories. I highly recommended them to all my friends/acquaintances and will continue doing so. I thank them for all the help and I really appreciate it.”

On May 25^th, 2017, we received another EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) approval for a Research and Development Engineer in the Field of Biomechanical Engineering (Approval Notice).

General Field: Biomechanical Engineering

Position at the Time of Case Filing: Research and Development Engineer

Country of Origin: India

Service Center: Nebraska Service Center (NSC)

State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Minnesota

Approval Notice Date: May 25^th, 2017

Case Summary:

With 20 peer-reviewed journal articles, 1 peer-reviewed conference paper, 16 peer reviews conducted for top-notch journals, and an outstanding citation record of 179, a research and development engineer from India has time and again proven the relevance of his studies and his extraordinary capability in the field of biomedical engineering. After North America Immigration Law Group reviewed his achievements, we confirmed that he was a suitable candidate for EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability).

Our client’s scientific abilities were reaffirmed by a prominent expert in the field who described “the esteem that other scholars in [Client]’s field hold for him” in his recommendation letter. He also discussed our client’s contributions and noted “his position at the zenith of the field of biomedical engineering.” Several other experts also volunteered recommendation letters in support of our client’s EB1A petition, all of which lent a hand in convincing the USCIS that our client is an asset to the United States.

Our team worked diligently to present details of our client’s illustrious portfolio—the result of the outstanding research he has conducted to improve the diagnosis and management of coronary artery disease and related conditions. We persuaded the USCIS that his work has led to the development of new and effective methods for evaluating diagnostic parameters, medical device performance, and more.

We are pleased that the USCIS recognized our client’s contributions to the field of biomechanical engineering by issuing an approval notice just 8 days after filing (thanks to Premium Processing, our client did not have to wait 4-9 months for action to be taken on his case). We thank him for working with us and wish him well as he continues to advance the field of biomechanical engineering.
