Case Summary:

Bolstered with a Ph.D. in biomedical science with unique and expansive expertise enabled our client, a research associate, to offer significantly to the field of biomedical science. He hired us to help him file an EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) petition representing his case. As per our legal services, North America Immigration Law Group assessed his credentials thoroughly and concluded that his continued research efforts are very important for ensuring beneficial outcomes in the United States. Once we were certain, we started organizing his case, and we listed his impressive background and achievements in his petition packet.

Research Brief: Initially, we reviewed his research on mechanisms of persistence in gene-modified cells and the utilization of cells for understanding mature T-cell persistence in humans. We deduced how his research addresses some of our nation’s most pressing issues in public health, particularly regarding disorders such as hypertension, HIV, and cardiovascular disease, and by understanding them he can surely determine the most effective therapeutic strategies and solve the major health burden in the United States.

Publication, Citation Count, and Peer-Review Experience: Also, we noted that he had actively engaged his peers in the field by authoring and co-authoring 14 peer-reviewed journal articles (4 of them first-authored) and 1 first-authored letter to the editor that have been published in international journals, and these publications have been cited by other expert researchers in at least 35 countries accumulating 466 citations. Furthermore, we observed his work as a peer reviewer and that he has already conducted 40 reviews for highly acclaimed journals, signifying his position as an outstanding authority in the scientific community of the biomedical science field.

Letters of Recommendation: We incorporated four recommendation letters obtained by our client from fellow specialists to confirm his extraordinary ability in the field. Thus, one of his recommenders stated the following:

“Based on [client’s] field of scientific research, his relentless search for the genetic pathophysiological basis of hypertension, a major silent killer in the U.S. and worldwide, and his outstanding scientific achievements and major contributions to the field, I wish to express my strong support for his application for permanent residency in the United States.”

We are elated by the arrival of our client’s EB-1A approval within 2 months and 15 days. Special thanks to the premium processing service, which is a paid option offered by the USCIS that allows petitioners to enjoy accelerated adjudication (the case will be processed within 15 days instead of 9-12 months). Our team’s diligence in his case played a big role as well in getting his case approved, and we thank him for choosing us for handling his I-140 EB1A application. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors.
