Case Summary:

For this case we worked with an engineer from China with a specialized focus on optimal manufacturing system design. His highly prolific career thus far had produced 13 peer-reviewed scientific articles, 2 book chapters, and 15 presentations at and/or papers published in the proceedings of national and international conferences. He had been cited at least 261 times, primarily by independent researchers at prominent and leading institutions and organizations worldwide. This remarkable citation record clearly indicates the major significance of our client’s work. He had also reviewed at least 112 manuscripts for 18 or more distinctive, internationally-circulated journals and conferences. It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that he sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of Manufacturing Systems Engineering, and that his continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. An independent recommender affirmed the significance of our client’s research: “[Client’s] research is highly innovative, and I wish to stress the originality inherent in [Client’s] treatment of evaluation and optimization algorithms. Indeed, a thorough examination of his work portfolio indicates the foundational knowledge he has been building. One of his projects involved creating a fundamentally novel philosophy for optimizing large manufacturing systems, using the segmentation approach in ways that had never before been applied…” With the proof and documentation that we provided, his case was approved in 34 days (7 days after requesting Premium Processing).
