Case Summary:
An Assistant Professor contacted our law firm to help him establish his significant contributions to the U.S. by filing for an EB-1B (Outstanding Professors and Researchers) visa category. We presented his unique executive background and unprecedented experience necessary to his current and future work at the USCIS.
Upon reviewing his credentials, we found that our client has completed his:
- Ph.D. in Geosciences and has an unparalleled documented record of authorship in his field of endeavor.
- His work has been published in some of the most prestigious, high-impact journals resulting in 20 peer-reviewed scientific articles.
- Moreover, he has already conducted at least 20 reviews for journals to date and his work has been cited by other scholars in numerous published articles as well. According to Google Scholar, his work has been cited a total of 564 times.
Furthermore, he has made substantial contributions to the field of geosciences. Specifically, his specialized research has focused on rock mechanics and earthquake detection systems. His research addresses some of our nation’s most pressing issues in understanding how rocks and soils deform under different types of loads. His strong background in geosciences has allowed his research to be particularly original, with applications such as novel models for understanding the stability of underground structures.
His case was further supported by four recommendation letters that he obtained from his fellow experts in the field, corroborating how his work has helped set the course for much subsequent research in this area. Therefore, one of the recommenders stated:
“…. [Client’s] research effectively charts a clear workflow for geoengineers to follow in order to decrease ground control risks in the construction and maintenance of underground mines, as well as highway tunnels and slopes. His work is therefore of paramount importance to reducing the economic damage and human costs associated with mine and tunnel accidents in the U.S.”
The totality of this evidence, thus shows that our client has been internationally recognized and fully qualified as an outstanding researcher in the field of geosciences.
Our team’s efforts successfully paid off in conveying to the USCIS that our client’s essential experience in the field of geosciences has afforded him vast knowledge and formidable skills, which are a significant asset to any research setting and thus set him apart as a vital researcher in his field of expertise today. We would like to congratulate him on securing his EB1B case approval, which was adjudicated in only 7 days instead of 9-12 months (Thanks to Premium Processing). We wish him to receive his green card as soon as possible.
