We at Chen Immigration Law Associates have developed strategies to procure the most substantial evidence required for the approval of these petitions.

Beyond this extraordinary proficiency, this client had published seven articles and abstracts in leading peer-reviewed journal publications, which had been cited at least 34 times.

These letters provided significant testimony of: (1) the merit associated with this client’s ongoing research; (2) the national scope and importance of these developments within the United States and; (3) the potential adverse effects if this client were unable to continue her research in Cancer Biology.
