Case Summary:
Our client, a postdoctoral research associate from India who specializes in the field of materials engineering focusing on atomistic modeling, hired our firm to present a convincing EB-1A case to the USCIS. His research addresses some of our nation’s most pressing issues in understanding the implications of structures and defects at the atomistic level.
By submitting evidence of the research success - 17 rigorously selected peer-reviewed scientific articles and his experience of judging the work of his peers for 30 times, we established the fact that our client is an extraordinary researcher who deserves to remain in the United States to conduct his impactful research. We also detailed the 569 times his work was cited by other leading and influential researchers around the world. Since EB-1A is one of the toughest I-140 categories, we made sure that we thoroughly presented our client’s achievements in a clear and concise manner.
The customized EB-1A petition packet which we arranged for our client contained an array of information that highlighted his research achievements. We also included several recommendation letters contributed by other well-known figures in the field. In addition to carefully assembling the required documents to file the EB-1A petition on behalf of our client, our team has included a customized citation map for visualization to indicate countries whose institutions have cited our client’s work. The visual presentation of the data has indeed further demonstrated and supported the argument in the petition letter drafted by us.
With abundant experience working with clients in virtually all fields of expertise, we are well equipped to handle every circumstance that might arise when filing an I-140 immigration petition. We truly appreciate our client for trusting us with the preparation of his EB-1A and for giving us an opportunity to be a part of his success story.
