On April 7^th, 2016, we received another EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) approval for a Senior Process Development Engineer in the Field of Materials Science (Approval Notice).

General Field: Materials Science

Position at the Time of Case Filing: Senior Process Development Engineer

Country of Origin: India

Service Center: Nebraska Service Center (NSC)

State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Oregon

Approval Notice Date: April 7^th, 2016

Case Summary:

The USCIS spent a total of 3.5 months reviewing our client’s EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) petition before granting their approval. It would have taken them far longer had our client not chosen to upgrade his case to Premium Processing (PP). Thanks to PP, our client enjoyed accelerated adjudication—just 2 days after the upgrade, the USCIS approved his petition. We are pleased that our well-prepared presentation of our client’s strong credentials lent a hand in persuading the USCIS to grant their approval.

North America Immigration Law Group (WeGreened.com) spent several months compiling relevant information to support our client’s EB-1A petition. We noted the 145 citations to his work and the 4 times he conducted peer reviews for scientific journals. We also listed his 6 scientific articles, 2 patents, 2 conference proceedings articles, 1 book chapter, and numerous presentations at national and international conferences.

To further strengthen our client’s EB-1A petition, we asked him to touch base with six expert materials scientists whom we helped him shortlist. We needed them to briefly discuss our client’s work on microelectronic packaging and confirm its value to the United States. Here is what one of them said about our client: “[Client] is leveraging full use of his talents in his current position producing wafer level packaging, specifically in devising new processes for it. The microelectronic industry, which his work is vital to, has been seeing explosive growth in recent years, with immense economic ramifications. [Client’s] work is thusly important on a global level.”

We congratulate our client on surpassing this significant milestone in the journey towards a green card. He is now free to file an I-485 application and once that is approved, he will obtain permanent residence in the United States. We wish him the best with this and thank him for choosing our firm to represent his EB-1A petition
