Case Summary:
A medical director specializing in the field of gynecologic oncology hired North America Immigration Law Group (NAILG) to help him obtain green card success. Just 3 days after his EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) petition was filed, the USCIS approved it, propelling our client one big step closer to his end goal.
EB1A is upheld by a very high standard of law and is relatively difficult to get approved. However, we were able to prove that our client met 3 out of the 10 evidentiary criteria set by the USCIS. We did this by detailing the 1,417 citations gathered from his 43 publications, and the 10 times he assessed the work of his peers. Furthermore, all the evidence we presented demonstrated in totality, that our client is at the top of his field with sustained international influence.
Another important element of our client’s EB1A petition packet involved recommendation letters contributed by other medical professionals. According to one of them: “[Client’s] work exemplifies the kind of study that yields enormous benefits for both patients and the healthcare system. Controlling costs while ensuring that patients receive the highest standard of care is often a difficult balance to strike, but one that [Client’s] much needed research achieves.” Undoubtedly, these letters supported our argument that our client’s research addresses some of our nation’s most pressing issues in understanding life-threatening diseases that affect women and how best to treat them.
We are pleased that our hard work paid off, and that our client secured EB1A approval. We thank him for retaining our services to help him and his dependent with their I-485 applications. As the final step in the green card process, I-485 approval leads to American permanent residency. We guarantee our continued diligence in preparing these applications, and wish our client well as he continues to conduct his important research here in the US.
