Success Stories: EB1A Approval for a Biomedical Engineer in the field of Biomedical Engineering in 12 weeks

Client’s Testimonial:

Thank you for your extremely valuable help with my EB1A petition! I commend your professionalism and efficiency which made the process seem rather easy.  I particularly liked how you chose to highlight some of my contributions and ignore others so as not to clutter and confuse the examiner. I have already been and will continue to recommend your service to my friends and colleagues.


On September 18th, 2013 we received another EB1-A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) Approval for a Biomedical Engineer in the field of Biomedical Engineering (Approval Notice)


General Field: Biomedical Engineering Position at the Time of Case Filing: Biomedical Engineer National Origin:  India Service Center: Nebraska Service Center (NSC) State of Residence at the Time of Filing:  Ohio Approval Notice Date: September 18, 2013 Processing Time:  12 weeks


Case Summary:

The client in this case was a biomedical engineer from India in the field of biomedical engineering. He had focused his doctoral and post-doctoral research in the area of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. His work had resulted in at least 11 peer-reviewed scientific articles, 3 invited reviews, 2 book chapters, 3 patents, and numerous national and international conference presentations.  At the time that his case was filed, his publications had accumulated at least 463 citations, clearly demonstrating that he had influenced his field and garnered international acclaim.  In addition, he had conducted 28 paper reviews for 10 journals related to the field of biomedical engineering.  Of his accomplishments, one of his independent recommenders remarked, “Overall, [client’s] work is innovative and has received vast international acclamation, and with ample reason. His work is revolutionizing the treatment of tendon and ligament injuries, as well as other scientists' understanding of the biomechanical and regenerative processes involved, and his techniques have profound implications for the future of orthopaedics.” It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that he sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of biomedical engineering, and that his continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. With the proof and documentation that we provided, his case was approved in just 12 weeks.
