General Field: Cardiovascular Tissue Engineering

Country of Origin: India

State of Residence at the Time of Filing: California

Approval Notice Date: May 9^th, 2018

Processing Time: 40 Days (Premium Processing Requested)

Case Summary:

A professor from India hired North America Immigration Law Group (WeGreened.com) to build and file a customized EB-1B (Outstanding Professors and Researchers) petition for him. Exactly 40 days after the case was filed, he received notification of case approval.

With an M.D. and ample experience working in the field of cardiovascular tissue engineering, he seemed like a good candidate for EB1B. Before taking on his case however, we had to determine if his employer was willing to serve as the I-140 petitioner—this is because EB1B is an employer-sponsored I-140 category. Upon confirmation, we started collecting an array of information related to our client’s research on the application of stem cells in the treatment of cardiovascular disease. We then built a personalized EB1B petition that emphasized the value of his work to the American medical sector, and the nation as a whole.

In support of our client’s EB1B petition, several well-known medical experts volunteered recommendation letters. These letters contained strong statements about the significance of our client’s work to the field, as well as details of his various research projects. According to one of these recommenders, our client “is truly a valuable asset to his field, and progress would suffer without his continued research.”

Besides recommendation letters and summaries of our client’s research we also listed the 548 times his 10 published articles were cited as well as the 30 times he judged the work of his peers. With over 10,000 I-140 approvals in the bag, we knew just what to include in our client’s petition to attain case approval.

We congratulate our client for coming this far in the green card process, and we thank him for retaining our I-485 services to help him and his spouse adjust their status for permanent residence. We promise them our continued support, and look forward to helping them obtain their green cards.
