Client’s Testimonial:

I really appreciate all your help and I'll be happy to recommend you on your Linkedin profile. I will also refer my friends to you in the future as I enjoyed working with you on this I-140 application.

On May 3rd, 2013, we received another EB2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) Approval for a Postdoctoral Scholar in the field of Kinesiology (Approval Notice)

General Field: Kinesiology Position at the Time of Case Filing: Postdoctoral Scholar National Origin: Poland Service Center: Texas Service Center (TSC) State Residing at the Time of Filing:Pennsylvania Approval Notice Date:May 3, 2013 Processing Time: 3 weeks

Case Summary:

The average processing time for I-140 cases is 4-6 months. But on many occasions, we have cases approved far faster than the average processing time.

This client is a post-doctoral scholar from Poland in the field of kinesiology, whose work has focused primarily on the study of movement neuroscience, with the aim of improving stroke rehabilitation programs. To ensure approval of this case, we submitted extensive documentation of the client’s highly significant contributions to the field of kinesiology, including his authorship of 11 peer-reviewed scientific articles published in leading journals, which have accumulated hundreds of citations, and over thirty conference proceedings and published abstracts. Additionally, our firm drafted and submitted several recommendation letters from experts in our client’s shared field. One of the independent recommenders noted “[The Petitioner] has conducted several significant research studies aimed at disentangling different types of neural asymmetries related to the use of the upper limb.. . . this research is directly valuable to improving the recovery of stroke patients, as well as to reducing the length of recovery, which will ultimately limit economic costs for patients and the US government.” With the strong petition letter and recommendation letters we prepared, his NIW case was approved in just three weeks.
