Case Summary:

With every EB1a (Aliens of Extraordinary Ability) case it is important to establish evidence that the client has completed research or professional accomplishments that mark them as extraordinary in the field of their endeavor. A large portion of our work at Chen Immigration Law Associates is derived from clients who have unsuccessfully filed their cases with another law firm or by themselves. These cases often get denied or receive an RFE (Request for Evidence) because they were not correctly assembled, evidence was not gathered according to the needs of the case, and court cases were not correctly cited. We at Chen Immigration Law Associates take special notice to EB1a cases as the organization of evidence is crucial in proving the client’s extraordinary ability in their field.

In this specific case, the client had published a significant amount of works, had been cited numerous times (over 800), and collaborated on several important research projects. It is important to note, that even in strong cases such as this, incorrect presentation of evidence, (or not enough evidentiary support) could potentially result in a denial. For these reasons, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates take particular time to gather and present evidence with a meticulous accuracy so that each case will have the best chances for a swift approval.

With this in consideration, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates gathered a plethora of evidence in order to reinforce that this client qualified as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability. First, we assisted in the drafting of seven recommendation letters on behalf of experts in various fields to display the varied influence this client’s work has had towards numerous research studies. Then, we researched applicable court cases associated with similar rulings for citation. Finally, we highlighted comparable researchers in similar fields to show the extraordinary accomplishments of this client in comparison to his colleagues.

Using this proven strategy, while correctly articulating the importance surrounding this client’s valued work, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates were able to secure approval for this petition in just 22 days!

With this in consideration, it is important to emphasize that the processes and expertise practiced by Chen Immigration Law Associates. Not only do we develop the best possible strategies for each case, but we execute these strategies with the utmost effectiveness!
