Case Summary:

North America Immigration Law Group was hired to file an EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) petition on behalf of a professor from India. Our client, who has a Ph.D. in Chemistry, has published 148 scientific papers that have gathered over 1200 citations and has conducted nearly 70 peer reviews on behalf of numerous high-impact journals. His biochemistry research focuses on new strategies for the prognosis and diagnosis of various diseases and on the design of new software to simplify research and obtain improved results.

The EB-1A petition packet that North America Immigration Law Group prepared for our client demonstrated the importance of his research to a variety of American industries, most importantly to the medical sector. Our client’s findings have helped other scientists understand the causes of debilitating diseases like acute myocardial infarction (AMI), Parkinson’s disease (PD), and type 2 diabetes. Other biochemists gave evidence of this in recommendation letters they provided in support of our client’s EB-1A petition. One of these letters stated that “…he is sure to continue taking the medical community to new heights of understanding in the prevention and diagnosis of diabetes and heart disease for many years to come, enhancing the lives of millions of diabetic patients across the globe.”

As our client is currently not living in the United States, North America Immigration Law Group will help him and his family with Immigrant Visa Processing (IVP). Once they are granted IVPs, they can enter the United States as permanent residents. We look forward to helping our client and his family in their final step toward new beginnings in the United States.
