Case Summary:

When organizing the evidence for an EB1A (Aliens of Extraordinary Ability) petition, it is crucial that each piece of evidence supports the criteria that has been highlighted by the petition letter.

In this specific case, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates focused this client’s petition to emphasize the client’s: (1) High Level of Expertise in their field of endeavor; (2) Sustained National and/or International Acclaim; and (3) Proof of Extraordinary Ability.

As each case presents a set of unique challenges, it is important that strategies be tailored specifically for each petition. As this client had published 12 peer-reviewed scientific articles in leading journals and 24 conference presentations, which had been cited at least 270 times, it was important to focus on other original and significant contributions she had made to the field of Physics.

With this in consideration, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates drafted seven recommendation letters; while working closely with these recommenders, we created first drafts of these letters for their review, edit, and signing. After signed copies of these letters were procured from the recommenders, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates used these letters to establish significant testimony of specific contributions this client had made to the field of physics. Specifically, these letters highlighted how this client had found new and improved models for exploring the unknown qualities of the universe, including the ability to integrate and synthesize two different systems of abundances in order to correctly space science’s understanding of dark matter.

This strong testimony provided by both dependent and independent recommenders allowed for the identification of both national and international acclaim, as well as proving this client’s high level of expertise in their field of endeavor.

To further emphasize the required “proof of extraordinary ability,” we at Chen Immigration Law Associates reinforced the merit associated with this client’s research and work, providing evidentiary support through its influence on the scientific community through quotes from independent advisory opinions speaking directly about this client’s body of work. Following this, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates referenced this client’s participation as the judge of the work of others, recognizing that this client had served as a peer reviewer for at least 6 internationally-recognized prestigious scientific journals.

Using this unique and tailored strategy, while correctly articulating the importance surrounding this client’s valued work, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates were able to secure approval for this petition.

With this in consideration, it is important to emphasize that the processes and expertise practiced by Chen Immigration Law Associates. Not only do we develop the best possible strategies for each case, but we execute these strategies with the utmost effectiveness!
