Success Story: O1-A Approval for a Mechanical Engineering Assistant Professor in 7 days

Client’s Testimonial:

Thank you, for your help on O-1 visa. It is very big relief for me.


On May 17th, 2013, we received another O1-A (Individual with Extraordinary Ability or Achievement) Approval for an Assistant Professor in the field of Mechanical Engineering (Approval Notice)


General Field: Mechanical Engineering
Petitioner: A large machines manufacturing company
Position at the Time of Case Filing: Assistant Professor
National Origin: India
Service Center: California Service Center (CSC)
State Residing at the Time of Filing: Texas
Approval Notice Date: Processing Time: 7 Days


Case Summary:

Similar to our EB1-A cases, O1-A cases require that clients demonstrate that they meet at least three of the regulatory criteria set by the USCIS and that they have achieved sustained national or international acclaim specified in this petition, and that the petitioner seeks to employ the beneficiary to continue his work in the field of endeavor in the United States.

This specific client is an assistant professor in the field of mechanical engineering. His work focuses on the areas of developing novel in-situ nano composite materials for energy efficient sliding systems, nano-tribological studies of metallic materials, researching bio-materials, and thermally analyzing composites. His petitioning company is a large machines manufacturing company located in Wisconsin, where our client would work as a tribology engineer. Our client’s research has resulted in at least 7 books, book chapters, or reports, as well as 42 international conference proceedings, accepted abstracts, conference presentations, and poster presentations. In addition, there are 16 peer-reviewed scholarly publications appearing in leading journals and international conference proceedings in print or accepted for publication, and 11 invited lectures.

In this case we proved that our client had satisfied the criteria to qualify as an individual of extraordinary ability, had risen to the top of their field of endeavor, had sustained national or international acclaim, and that they sought to enter the United States to continue their outstanding research work in the field of endeavor for a qualified petitioner with the ability to pay.
