Case Summary:

Just one week after North America Immigration Law Group (NAILG) filed an EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) petition on behalf of a diagnostic medical physics resident from China, the USCIS approved her case. They only spent 7 days processing her petition because our client filed it under Premium Processing (PP). PP is a paid option that allows petitioners to have action taken on their cases within 15 calendar days.

When we evaluated our client’s credentials, it was clear that she qualified for EB-1A. As this visa category is upheld by a very high standard of law, we had to present plenty of evidence to the USCIS that demonstrated the importance of our client’s research to the United States. Her EB1A petition packet was composed of many things, including: details on the 129 citations gathered from her 9 published scientific articles and the 20 times she judged the work of her peers for a handful of journals. We also noted her doctoral degree obtained from a renowned American university.

Our client’s EB-1A petition packet also contained recommendation letters that verified her scholarly and professional accomplishments on developing and refining novel magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy (MRI and MRS) techniques. These letters were volunteered by six experts immersed in the field of medical physics, all of whom made statements akin to these:

“Through her research, [Client] has already provided breakthroughs directly relevant to people and interests in the United States. Her work to uncover the fundamental mechanisms of panic disorder is contributing to improved methods by which to understand, diagnose, and treat the condition, which affects about 6 million adults in the U.S.” –Professor, USA

“[Client's] research has already provided a great benefit to research in imaging technology and cancer detection, and I strongly affirm the importance of her continued work as a medical physicist and researcher in the U.S.” –Assistant Professor, USA

We congratulate our client for attaining an in-demand EB-1A petition approval. It was a pleasure helping her with her case and we wish her the best as she adjusts her status for permanent residence with the help of our I-485 D.I.Y. Packet.
