Case Summary:
Our client, a Chinese postdoc who specializes in the field of chemical engineering focusing on electrocatalyst and electrocatalytic process design and development for biomass-derived compound upgrading and valorization, 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 biofuel and fuel-additives production from biomass-derived wastes for fossil fuel replacement, and renewable energy efficient storage and conversion.
By submitting evidence of the research success – 15 rigorously selected peer-reviewed articles and his experience of judging the work of his peers for 19 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 848 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. One of the recommenders stated that: “Considering the importance of [client’s] specialized research, it is evident that his studies are fundamental to the field of chemical engineering. Thus, it is clear that [client’s] research endeavors and qualifications set him apart as a uniquely valuable individual in the American research community.”
In addition to carefully assembling the required documents to file the EB-1A petition on behalf of our client, our team has included customized figures and tables for visualization to indicate that our client’s publications have been cited at a much higher rate than those of other researchers in the field, distinguishing him from his peers. 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 NIW cases, and for giving us an opportunity to be a part of his success story.
