Success Story: Thanks to Premium Processing, a Chinese Assistant Professor got his EB1-B Petition Approved in the Field of Economics in just 10 Days

Client’s Testimonial:

“Thanks for letting me know. It is excellent news. Of course, your service deserves a 5-star.”

On April 6^th, 2023, we received another EB-1B (Outstanding Professors and Researchers) approval for an Assistant Professor in the Field of Economics (Approval Notice).

General Field: Economics

Position at the Time of Case Filing: Assistant Professor

Country of Origin: China

State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Louisiana

Approval Notice Date: April 6^th, 2023

Processing Time: 10 days (Premium Processing Requested)

Case Summary:

“Based on the rigor of his publications and the valuable nature of his work in advancing economic product modeling, I have come to view [client] as one of the most advanced contributors to the field. It is thus imperative that he be allowed to continue his groundbreaking research on resource economics to further the United States’ economic and trade interests.”

The above snippet is extracted from one of the four recommendation letters our client, an assistant professor, achieved in his field of resource economics. He approached NAILG to help him acquire his EB-1B (Outstanding Professors and Researchers) petition approval. We made sure that he received the best legal assistance for the same.

Although to be qualified for the EB1-B category, the petition must:

Show international recognition as being outstanding in a specific academic area;
The foreign national must have at least 3 years of experience in teaching or researching in the academic area;
While no labor certification is required, there must be an offer of ongoing employment from the sponsoring employer.

Therefore, after reviewing his credentials, we found that our client has gathered an awe-inspiring record of success:

He received his Ph.D. in economics;
His research has resulted in at least 9 peer-reviewed journal articles, 1 book chapter, and 4 technical reports (1 peer-reviewed);
His publications have been cited 112 times according to Google Scholar, thereby signifying that these publications are widely acknowledged and counted upon in the field of his expertise;
He has conducted at least 20 reviews.

Additionally, our client’s research addresses some of our nation’s most pressing issues in understanding how to manage natural resources. His strong background in economics has allowed his research to be particularly original, with applications such as developing models for predicting the sustainability of natural resources under various socioeconomic and climate conditions, and for assessing damage caused by natural disturbances to local communities.

We are therefore confident that he is more than capable of furthering his knowledge base in the chosen field and continuing his work in the United States of America. Thus, he received his EB1-B approval in just 10 days (thanks to premium processing).

We would like to thank him for trusting us during the whole immigration process and would like to send our best wishes for his future endeavors.
