Client’s Testimonial:

Thank you very much for the good news. I am so happy.

We Received Another EB1-A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) Approval on June 5^th, 2014, for an RF Application Engineer in the Field of Electrical Engineering (Approval Notice)

General Field: Electrical Engineering

Position at the Time of Case Filing: RF Application Engineer

Country of Origin: Iran

Service Center: Nebraska Service Center (NSC)

State of Residence at the Time of Filing: California

Approval Notice Date: June 5, 2014

Processing Time: 4 months, 16 days

Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was an RF Application Engineer from Iran in the field of Electrical Engineering. His work had largely focused on the development and modeling of single-phase hexaferrite magnetoelectric materials for microwave magnetic applications. His work had resulted in 12 peer-reviewed scholarly publications appearing in leading journals, a first-authored book, one patent, many awards, and multiple conference presentations and international conference proceedings. At the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 62 times by researchers around the world, indicating the major significance of his work. He had also served as a peer reviewer for 11 scientific publishing journals and conferences related to the field of electrical engineering and materials science. The importance of his work was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[He] has made fundamental contributions to the state of knowledge regarding such materials and devices fabricated with the materials. His work on devices is particularly important: without practical realizations of devices that rely on the unique features of the material, such work although intellectually stimulating has little impact on society and industry. In the 21^st century, Engineering programs need to not only provide innovation (research) and education (workforce development) but also be an agent and engine for economic development.” It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that he sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of Electrical Engineering, and that his continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. With the proof and documentation that we provided, his case was approved in 4 months and 16 days.
