Case Summary:

A Senior Research Scientist approached North America Immigration Law Group to file his alien of extraordinary ability (EB1-A) petition. Hailing from China, he has completed his Ph.D. in electrical engineering and is currently employed in the field of robotics.

Since, a petition for the first preference category of individuals with extraordinary ability, (“EB1-A”), unlike the employment-based immigration visa under the second preference (“EB-2”) at least requires the following:

Evidence of original contributions, usually through publication, of major significance in the foreign national’s field of science, scholastic, artistic, or athletic.
No specific job offer/labor certification is required for a foreign person as long as he/she is entering the United States to continue work in the field in which he/she has an extraordinary ability, therefore self-petition is allowed.
Performance in a significant role for organizations or establishments that have a distinguished reputation.
Receipt of a higher salary or remuneration than is usual in the field.
Other comparable evidence if the above types of evidence do not readily apply to the foreign national’s occupation.

Therefore, we included the following essentials from his academic and professional records in his petition packet to make a convincing case in his favor:

His robotics research addresses some of our nation’s and the world’s most pressing issues, including the inefficiencies and risks associated with robot training by creating safe, effective simulation environments and improving human-robot interactions.
His research has resulted in 32 conference papers (6 co-first authored, 3 corresponding-authored) , 7 peer-reviewed journal articles (1 co-first authored, 1 first-authored), and 5 preprints.
He has conducted at least 30 reviews to date.

Our client’s work has thus been majorly significant, and his achievements are of the utmost importance due to their direct applicability in global efforts to address inefficient human-robot interactions.

Four fellow experts in the field further provided insight into the significance of his continuing research in the field, one of whom remarked:

“…[Client] has designed models and algorithms that allow robots to autonomously navigate through user instructions and exhibit problem-solving capabilities. By promoting improved human-robot interactions, his work alleviates existing robotic inefficiencies.”

Finally, he achieved his EB1-A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) approval in just 11 days (thanks to premium processing). We are glad to have been a part of his successful journey and wish him a flourishing life ahead.
