Case Summary:

“… [Client] is among the researchers who hold important value both for HIV research and the field of molecular biology at large, and he will continue to promote the national interests of the United States by forwarding scientific research in these areas.”

This quote is excerpted from a recommendation letter contributed by a professor working in the field of molecular biology. His letter and several others were included in the comprehensive EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) petition dossier that we submitted to the USCIS on our client’s behalf. We also included his citation, publication, and peer review record, which at the time of filing stood at 179 independent citations, 6 papers, and 23 instances of review service.

Our client, an instructor from China, researches the molecular progression of diseases. North America Immigration Law Group proved that his work addresses some of the United States’ most pressing issues in understanding cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and HIV. We also established that halting our client’s research efforts in the country would hinder the development of novel therapeutic treatments.

Thanks to Premium Processing, our client received news of his I-140 approval 12 days after we filed his EB-1A case. We congratulate him on this milestone and wish him well with his I-485 application (the final step in obtaining a green card).
