Case Summary:

With an M.S. in civil engineering with extensive experience in algorithm and model development, mobile application development, and big data analytics methods, our client undoubtedly has the ability to extend in the field of civil engineering. He hired North America Immigration Law Group to file an EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) petition on his behalf. We evaluated his academic background thoroughly, and confirmed that we could lead him to EB1A success by documenting the below-mentioned details in his EB1A case:

• We noted the 311 times his work was cited by other researchers in the field from independent and leading researchers from well-regarded institutions and organizations from at least 38 countries. Moreover, we recorded the 14 peer-reviewed scientific articles he published. His remarkable travel behavior research has appeared in over ten peer-refereed journal publications, which are well-respected publications and often receive numerous manuscripts due to the rapid pace of current civil engineering research projects. The fact that his work has been published in such journals regularly is a testament to the significance of his research.
• In addition to advancing the field through publication, his expertise is also displayed through his history of peer review i.e., he conducted 55 peer reviews for some of the most prominent journals in civil engineering. For such periodicals to request his expertise indicates his distinctive reputation not only among his peers but also within the greater scientific community.
• Highlighting one of the most important factors of our client’s EB1A petition was his research on travel behavior analysis and travel demand forecasting, addressing some of our nation’s most pressing issues, including the need for traffic management and congestion mitigation. His strong background in transportation and civil engineering resulted in his success in fundamentally transforming research related to traffic flow, travel behavior, and travel demand. This established that our client is well-known for his contributions to understanding how COVID-19-related lockdowns affected travel behavior throughout the United States.
• To bolster our client’s petition, we added four recommendation letters provided by his fellow expert researchers in the field, corroborating that our client’s research into traffic control learning methods is necessary to improve traffic conditions across the nation. Therefore, the continuation of his work is of utmost importance to the citizens of the U.S., and two of them stated:

“Between his contributions to travel behavior analysis and travel demand forecasting, his overwhelming success both in academia and research projects, and his peer reviewer status, [client] is clearly a distinctive and invaluable asset that continues to benefit the scientific community as a whole. For these reasons, he must be allowed to continue his research in the United States uninterrupted.”

“Considering his achievements in travel behavior analysis, the frequent publication of his research in leading journals, and his illustrious record of evaluating other experts’ work, [client] is a phenomenal resource to fellow experts in his field. Through his expertise in algorithm design and ability to identify dangers and opportunities in transportation, he is undoubtedly a premier researcher whose skillset is unmatched within the field of civil engineering. Therefore, he must be provided a platform to further his research in the United States.”

Overall, our client obtained his EB1A petition approval, without any further obstacles. We thank our associated team and the premium processing service, upgraded by our client for his EB1A petition, which led him to achieve his case approval in just 12 days. We also thank our client for choosing our law firm, and we wish him all the best in his future endeavors.
