Case Summary:

For EB1-A cases we at Chen Immigration work with our clients to demonstrate that they meet at least three of the regulatory criteria set by the USCIS and that they have a level of expertise indicating that they are “one of that small percentage who have risen to the very top of their field of endeavor” and have sustained national or international acclaim and that their achievements have been recognized in the field of their expertise. In this case we proved that our client surpassed these desired qualifications by highlighting this client’s exceptional research and by compiling strong Independent Advisory Opinions.

As in many of our EB1-A cases we at Chen Immigration Law and Associates begin our petitions by highlighting the outstanding nature of our client’s educational and research backgrounds. This supports the first criterion set by the USCIS that our client has contributed significant work in their field of study. In this case we did this by illustrating our client’s extensive research background whereby our client had been associated with over 300 citations. Also we highlighted upon this client’s expertise by showcasing their multiple invitations to participate as a judge in the works of other scientists for many leading internationally-circulated journals.

Even when a researcher has obtained a high amount of citation letters, we at Chen Immigration Law and Associates maintain the belief that a petition should still be aided with the highest of quality of Independent Advisory Opinions. As in all of our EB1-A cases we draft letters that are from professors and researchers who have not worked with the client, but rather are familiar with their work through their publications and international reputation. We then use the content of these letters to support our petition’s material regarding the client’s major contributions and benefit to the United States.

Using this proven strategy, while correctly articulating the importance surrounding this client’s valued work, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates were able to secure approval for this petition on March 19th, 2013.

With this in consideration, it is important to emphasize that the processes and expertise practiced by Chen Immigration Law Associates. Not only do we develop the best possible strategies for each case, but we execute these strategies with the utmost effectiveness!
