Case Summary:

Although the average processing time for I-140 cases is 4-6 months, Chen Immigration Law Associates recently obtained an EB1A approval in only 48 days without requesting premium processing. The client in this case was a Research Associate conducting research in the area of radiotherapy, working to optimize the dose of radiation patients receive through the novel use of proton pencil beam scanning, with a particular benefit to young patients undergoing radiation therapy. His work tested using selective radiation doses for children under the age of three to eliminate the risk of damage to the central nervous system, which is a particular danger to young children in conventional radiation therapy. He also has a long history of working in nanotechnology. One of his projects in the area of nanotechnology involved using magnetic fields to prepare single-crystalline nanowires. An independent recommender in his case remarked upon his history of accomplishments, saying: “There is enormous potential in [his] research—potential that has already been fulfilled in many ways both in his existing work, and in his current focus. He is clearly an elite member of his field, making progress in areas where other researchers have not been able to. Given these successes, I highly encourage you to support the continuation of his influential research.” With evidence that this client published 19 peer-reviewed articles and had 9 conference presentations, while acting as a peer reviewer for 7 journals, this Alien of Extraordinary Ability was granted approval in just 48 days.
