Case Summary:

An assistant scientist with a doctoral degree in physics with a consistent and notable record of success and influence in this area of study hired our law firm (North America Immigration Law Group) to construct an EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) petition on his behalf. He was aware that we will certainly go through his credentials and accordingly demonstrate if he possesses the capability to continue his research here in the United States. Thus, once we evaluated his background of expertise and experience, we affirmed filing an efficacious petition letter to be submitted to the USCIS.

We detailed the following attributes in our client’s petition package:

• The 22 peer-reviewed scientific articles he published, all of which appeared in international journals and conference proceedings. Making publication in these notable journals is a rare accomplishment achieved by only the very best researchers in the field. The distinguished merit of his work certainly does not go unheeded by his colleagues in the scientific sphere, as shown by the extensive utilization of his research. This proves our client’s great standing in the field.
• Also, we noted the 49,615 times his work was cited by researchers in dozens of countries. This exhibits his articles which have attracted a monumental amount of attention from other researchers in his field. His level of influence is evident in the number of his citations from professionals at a wide variety of institutions, signifying the versatility of his research results.
• We further observed that our client judged the work of his fellow peers 13 times, proving recognition of his multiple leadership positions in the nuclear physics field. As a peer reviewer, he has appraised the accuracy of many manuscripts submitted to several leading journals, and relied upon his expertise when selecting what articles are worthy of publication. These leadership positions, appropriate only for industry experts, are indicative of our client’s robust skillset and impeccable reputation.
• Above all, we detailed his research on quantum entanglement, addressing some of our nation’s and the world’s most pressing issues, including the advancement of physics and nuclear technology. Also, his research received funding awards from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). This competitive funding supports projects that advance the mission and objectives of these organizations, focused on new advancements in energy and fundamental chemistry. Hence, his research elevates the energy priorities of the United States.
• To reinforce his case further, we included 4 recommendation letters signed by other experts in the field, and one of them stated: “[Client]is an eminent nuclear physicist whose research bolsters the United States’ global leadership in scientific research and development.”

With a victorious rate of more than 17,000 I-140 approved cases, we once again established our expertise in handling employment-based petition presentations and proved to the USCIS of our client’s unparalleled understanding of nuclear physics and his masterful technical abilities that enable him to outperform his colleagues in terms of the quality of his results and his contributions to the field. USCIS adjudicated his case thoroughly and thanks to premium processing service, his EB1A got approval in just 1 month and 9 days. We congratulate him for obtaining the alien of extraordinary ability visa approval and allowing us to be a part of his success story.
