Thank you again for all the help on my […] O-1 petition and answering all the questions. Wish you have good holidays.

On December 5th, 2014, We Received an O1-A (Individual with Extraordinary Ability or Achievement) Approval for a Lead Chemist/Researcher in Washington in the Field of Environmental Engineering


General Field: Environmental Engineering

Case Summary:
Similar to EB1-A cases, O1-A cases require that beneficiaries demonstrate that they meet at least three of the regulatory criteria set forth by the USCIS, that they have achieved sustained national or international acclaim, and that the petitioner seeks to employ the beneficiary to continue his or her work in the field of endeavor in the United States.
This specific client is a Lead Chemist/Researcher from China in the field of Environmental Engineering. His work has focused specifically on the design, development, evaluation, and commercialization of enabling technologies for renewable energy production, including bio-hydrogen and biogas production, biogas purification, and nutrient recovery from waste materials. His research has resulted in at least 21 peer-reviewed articles published in leading and international journals, 8 patents, and numerous national and international conference presentations. His scientific articles have been cited at least 409 times by researchers around the globe. He has also been invited to review over 13 papers submitted to prestigious international journals and conferences.His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from a recommender, “His studies have led to practical solutions to the challenges facing waste-management, as well as creating a foundation for continued research on different waste substances. The data he has collected enables this line of research to perpetuate, which is essential to the fundamental mission of Environmental Engineering to promote the well-being of the environment for safely sustaining human and animal life.” In this case, we were able to prove that our client had satisfied the criteria to qualify as an individual of extraordinary ability, had risen to the top of his field of endeavor, had sustained national or international acclaim, and that he sought to enter the United States to continue his outstanding research work in the field of endeavor and for a qualified petitioner.

Recently, the USCIS has accelerated its case adjudicating time at the 2nd quarter of 2014, which is reflected in the number of case approvals of our firm. To be more specific, we at North America Immigration Law Group have received 29 EB1A, 9 EB1B, and 66 NIW approval notices in May, 2014. In addition, in June we have received 20 EB1A, 4 EB1B, and 45 NIW approval notices. As for July, we have received 41 EB1A, 3 EB1B, and 44 NIW approval notices. Furthermore, in August we have received 32 EB1A, 6 EB1B, and 44 NIW approval notices. Most recently, in September we have received 44 EB1A, 8 EB1B, and 78 NIW approval notices. In total, we have received more than 614 approval notices from January 2014 to September 2014, which makes us one of the leading U.S. immigration law firms with high volume of approval cases and high approval rate in EB1A, EB1B, and NIW I-140 immigration petitions.   For more information about our approved cases, please see: http://www.wegreened.com/eb1_niw_approvals   We are also pleased to announce that we have more than 600 EB1 and NIW case approvals in the year of 2013. In 2013, we got more than 516 physical approval notices of EB1 and NIW cases with the approval rate exceeding 98.5%*. In addition, we also successfully helped around 70 clients preparing their RFE (Request for Evidence) responses that were originally filed by other law firms or by DIY clients filing the cases themselves. Furthermore, we helped around 30 clients preparing their EB1B cases for their employers to file. In these cases, we are not able to get approval notices as we are not the attorney on record.
We provide the most comprehensive service for NIW and EB1 petitions, including drafting the recommendation letters (from scratch), drafting the petition letter and responding to RFE. Our staff keeps close track of the latest immigration trends and regulations of USCIS (U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services), decisions of AAO (Administrative Appeal Office) and judicial review opinions. The massive collected materials contribute to the most convincing arguments and winning strategies of our firm for EB1A, EB1B, and NIW petitions.
