Case Summary:

Here at Chen Immigration Law Associates, we recently received another NIW approval for a client in the field of ophthalmology. This client specializes in corneal immunity against infection and clinical evaluation and treatment for myopia. Her publications have been cited at least 22 times by researchers worldwide, the majority of whom are unaffiliated with our client. Her publications have also been cited by industry professionals from prestigious universities, companies, and government laboratories in several countries across the world, and in turn, these publications authored by international experts have themselves been extensively cited. Her expertise can also be seen in a quote by an independent recommender, “it is clear to me she is fast becoming an expert in the field and has already provided many significant contributions toward creating a society more knowledgeable of eye conditions and available treatment methods.” With the strong petition letter and recommendation letters we prepared, her NIW case was approved in just over a month.
