Case Summary:

With a meticulous record of 16 peer-reviewed scientific articles published in some of the most discerning, high-impact journals in the field of biotechnology, our client’s work accumulated 417 citations from at least 50 countries, establishing the impact that he has had on his peers and colleagues. Moreover, his invaluable editorial and peer reviewing contributions to scientific research are a cornerstone of the publishing process and essential for maintaining the validity, integrity, and quality of his scholarly work. As he has conducted 26 reviews to date, speaks volumes of his authoritative status and recognized expertise in his chosen field.

Considering the above-mentioned crucial details, our team at North America Immigration Law Group agreed to take a Research Instructor’s plea for filing an I-140 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition representing his groundbreaking research summary, having both substantial merit and national importance. We noted his noteworthy research work on developing a genomic screening platform, gene therapy-based approaches, and state-of-the-art molecular and genomic screening methods to facilitate the design of novel treatment modalities for future cancer treatments, addressing some of the world’s most pressing issues, including the identification of genetic factors that contribute to cancer development and progression.

Impressed with our service, our client also decided to retain us for filing another petition under the I-140 EB1-A category (Alien of Extraordinary Ability). With a track record of more than 25,000 approved cases, we were certain that we would be able to support him with both cases. We also started gathering important information for constructing a strong EB1-A case on his behalf.

The most difficult requirement in acquiring the EB1A approval is to prove the alien’s national and international acclaim with recognized achievements. We were thus soon able to compile an outstanding list of his accomplishments, including his publication and citation records, peer-review experience, and funding support for his work from the U.S. National Institutes of Health [NIH]; Department of Biotechnology, the Ministry of Science & Technology, Government of India; American Cancer Society [ACS], proving his extraordinary ability as well as his national and international importance to the United States.

To confirm the elite level of his attainment, we further demonstrated that his work has been extensively recognized by independent scholars, and all of his recommenders are internationally renowned experts in the field. An excerpt from one of his 4 recommendation letters is presented below:

“Based on his accomplishments so far, it is highly apparent that [client] has surpassed any reasonable expectations for a researcher within his field. Therefore, the United States must ensure that his research is allowed to continue, as the nation would be at a significant disadvantage without his further work.”

We are extremely happy that we were able to affirm to USCIS of our client’s research, which is therefore highly valuable to the United States’ ongoing fight against cancer. Thus, he achieved both his EB1A and NIW approvals just four months apart. This is not only the best part; the best part is he also retained us for his and his spouse’s I-485 applications and received their green card approvals two months after his NIW approval. Three good news back-to-back this year make us wish our client all the luck in his future endeavors as well.
