On August 20^th, 2019, we received another EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) approval for a Software Developer in the field of Computational Fluid Dynamics (Approval Notice).

General Field: Computational Fluid Dynamics

Position at the Time of Case Filing: Software Developer

Country of Origin: China

State of Residence at the Time of Filing: one of TSC states

Approval Notice Date: August 20^th, 2019

Processing Time: 8 days (Premium Processing Requested)

Case Summary:

With a doctorate in mechanical engineering and ample experience working in the same field, a software developer from China checked all the boxes when it comes to qualifying for EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability). Thanks to Premium Processing (PP), our client only had to wait 8 days to receive notification of his EB-1A petition approval. Premium Processing (PP) is an add-on option that allows petitioners to have action taken on their cases within 15 days. All they have to do is pay the USCIS an additional $1,410 and submit Form I-907. With the customized letters we drafted, our team successfully proved to the adjudicating authorities that our client’s work is of national importance, and his continued presence could benefit the United States and accelerate progress in the field of computational fluid dynamics on an international scale.

Our client has made significant contribution to the field of computational fluid dynamics, including developing highly accurate simulation software for multiphase flow and statistical models for multiphase flow. His work has achieved an enormous impact on the engineering field, the oil and gas industry, product design, and various manufacturing and industrial sectors among others.

The enhancement of the modeling and simulation techniques and technologies resulted from his findings was utilized by a wide range of engineering and industrial processes. This can be confirmed by his 7 published peer-reviewed scientific articles which have been cited 203 times in other peer-reviewed journal articles and the 22 instances of peer review work that our client had performed for multiple high impact scientific periodicals. In fact, these citations came from researchers both in the United States and from around the world, indicating that his work has indeed been utilized in a myriad of ways by leading researchers around the world. The implementation of his research substantiates that his work is influencing and guiding cutting-edge research inquiries within the field.

To bolster his EB-1A petition, our client managed to collect five letters of recommendation from other experts in the field. These letters attested to the significance of his work and as an example, this is what an eminent professor wrote in support of our client’s petition: “His work is evidently informative for researchers conducting original research such as myself while also contributing to foundational understanding of multiphase flow. Thus, his work measurably advances the objectives of the academic field”.

We thank our client for working with us on his I-140 EB-1A petition, and we wish him the best with the last step of the green card process: filing an I-485 application.
