“Everything was smooth and transparent. I really appreciate the promptness in response to all the questions… I am fully satisfied with everything. I have already recommended you guys to several of my friends and I will continue to do so. Great work, thank you very much.”

Case Summary:

We had another EB-1B (Outstanding Professors and Researchers) petition approved for a wonderful geoscientist, holding a master of science degree in Geophysics and specialized in rock physics, shale reservoirs, seismic inversion, and years of research in the field of geophysics, focusing on geological interpretation and analysis of petroleum systems, depositional environments, and pressure/stress mechanisms controlling elastic properties of the reservoir and overburden.

Our client possessed the outstanding abilities in the field to continue addressing some of our nation’s most pressing issues in understanding rock physics and geomechanical analysis along with seismic inversion that helps in characterizing shale reservoirs. Additionally, his investigations and technology have been directly utilized by several major oil and gas companies around the world. His inversion technology has been used in at least ten commercial projects for many companies, proving the realistic importance of his research.

We were certain that the North America Immigration Law Group would be able to achieve the desired success in this case. Thus, we prepared his EB1B petition packet by incorporating his academic, research, and employment details in it. We comprised the employment letter describing his current position with at least 3 years of research experience in the field, a copy of the original offer letter from his current employer, the annual report, and financial statements to confirm his employer’s ability to pay him the proffered wage along with four recommendation letters acquired by our client from his fellow researchers corroborating that his research has critical implications in his field for several companies around the world, which rely on his methods to run profitable businesses. One of them had the following to state:

“[Client] is a crucial member of the geophysics community who informs the field in ways that advance the American national interest. His work has improved our understanding of rock parameter measurements, the Delaware Basin, and innumerable other topics of critical significance. As a result, he has been invited to peer review for leading institutions and has accumulated a sterling citation record. I, therefore, lend my support to him and his continued research in the field of geophysics here in the United States.”

We noted that he had published his advanced research findings in at least 8 peer-reviewed conference papers (4 of them first-authored), 5 peer-reviewed journal articles (2 of them first-authored), 1 accepted conference paper, and 1 conference abstract. His papers have appeared in high-impact and internationally circulated journals in the field and were cited by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world 179 times, suggesting the major significance of his work. Furthermore, we recorded that our client was constantly invited to judge the work of his fellow peers, establishing his duties as a peer reviewer, and therefore, conducted 130 peer reviews for highly acclaimed journals.

Successfully, USCIS approved the I-140 EB1B petition via premium processing service in just 13 days. We are glad that we could consistently help him to achieve the EB1B approval. Following the approval, our client also retained our services for his and his wife’s I-485 applications. We wish them to get their green cards as soon as possible and flourish in the proposed project work.
