Case Summary:

A postdoctoral research fellow from China hired North America Immigration Law Group (NAILG) to help her prepare and file an EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) petition. Just 9 days after the petition was filed, she received notification of case approval.

A green card offers her varied employment opportunities:

Our client expressed interest in widening her career options and as part of our comprehensive services, we advised her to continue working in her field of expertise. A green card will give her the flexibility to change jobs, and thus, invite new career opportunities for her in the United States in the near future. Now that our client has an approved EB1A, all that stands between her and a green card is the I-485 application, which she has chosen to file on her own using our complimentary D.I.Y. Packet.

Preparing our client’s EB1A petition:

Our team worked diligently to highlight the 377 times our client’s 14 publications were cited as well as the 17 times she judged the work of her peers. She has been described as “one of the most innovative and skilled researchers” and we are pleased that we were able to convince the USCIS of the importance of allowing our client to advance her studies in the United States.

A green card will bring about various employment opportunities for our client, and the fruits of her innovative research will continue to greatly benefit the United States. We wish our client the best as she files an I-485 application, and we thank her for choosing us to represent her EB1A petition.
