Case Summary:

Possessor of an MBBS/M.D. degree, a neurology resident based in Tennessee hired us to construct an EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) petition for him. Before presenting his case to the USCIS, our legal attorneys evaluated his credentials and determined his proposed research. His work suggests diagnosing and treating patients with various neurological disorders, extending the reasonable expectation that he will continue to do so within the United States. We were certain of leading him to the EB1A approval. To substantiate his testimonies, we highlighted the following details:

We evaluated his research carefully, which is focused on movement-related disorders. We concluded that his research addresses some of our nation’s most pressing issues in understanding conditions such as dystonia, Parkinson’s disease, falls, and stroke.
We, then, recorded the 34 peer-reviewed scientific articles and 4 book chapters he published in the impacting journals in the field. We also noticed that our client judged the work of his peers 20 times for highly acclaimed journals.
We detailed the 498 times his work was cited by peers and fellow researchers, suggesting the significance of his research to other experts in the field of neurology. Moreover, he has not only completed his research but his work has been cited by other skillful researchers in several countries, representing the great prominence of these publications around the world.
Further supplementing our client’s petition, we consolidated 4 recommendation letters obtained by our client from other well-recognized researchers in the field. One of his recommenders contributed the below-mentioned words:

“[Client] has presented influential research that supports many other scientists who refer to his work to build their studies and support their findings. Accounting for all of his accomplishments, he is an invaluable asset to neurology research, and his work in the field advances the goals of the international research community.”

Thanks to premium processing service, our client won the EB1A approval without an RFE (request for evidence). We thank him for collaborating and cooperating with us throughout the process and permitting us to represent his EB1A case.
