Success Stories: EB-1A Petition Approved in 36 Days for an Analytical Chemistry Expert in Georgia (127 Citations)

Client’s Testimonial:

“Thank you very much…I really appreciate your work and help!”

On August 18^th, 2017, we received another EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) approval for a client currently unemployed in the Field of Analytical Chemistry (Approval Notice).

General Field: Analytical Chemistry

Position at the Time of Case Filing: N/A

Country of Origin: China

Service Center: Texas Service Center (TSC)

State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Georgia

Approval Notice Date: August 18^th, 2017

Processing Time: 36 days (Premium Processing Requested)

Case Summary:

Our client, an expert in the field of analytical chemistry, has relentlessly strived to set herself apart from her peers by engaging in quality research. This is evident in the 10 peer-reviewed scientific articles to her name, all of which have been the result of her specialized research that is focused on improving HPLC columns and instrumentation for capillary liquid chromatography. Her studies have been lauded by distinguished figures in the field who are well- versed with her work, one of whom highlighted the national importance of her research by writing:

“By improving HPLC columns and other components of this technology, [Client] has provided industry actors across the United States and the world with improved tools for creating new products and ensuring product quality.”

The statement above was taken from one of the several recommendation letters that North America Immigration Law Group (NAILG) incorporated into our client’s EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) petition. These letters were helpful in substantiating our client’s credentials which, besides her publication record, included a citation count of 127. Moreover, her record of conducting at least 25 peer reviews is a notable accomplishment demonstrating her expertise in judging the work of her peers.

NAILG’s argument in favor of retaining our client in the United States was summed up by another recommender, who wrote:

“[Client]’s steady stream of accomplishments has propelled her to the top of a very fast-moving and competitive field. As one of the most renowned researchers in her area of specialization today, she is certain to continue producing valuable work in the years to come.”

A little over 2 weeks after we filed our client’s EB1A petition, we upgraded it to Premium Processing (PP). She received an approval notice soon after, and we congratulate her on this win. There is only one more hurdle standing between our client and her green card—the I-485 application—and we wish her the best with it.
