Case Summary:

An expert oncologist, whose letter we included in our EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) petition to the USCIS, had this to say about our client’s work: “[Client’s] unique study on this front stands out because her research has procured first-time results and the most in-depth analysis recorded to date […] cleared the way for practical, therapeutics adjustments for the clinical management of lymphoma-stricken individuals.” This letter was accompanied by four other similar testimonials, all of which were contributed by experts in the field on oncology.
North America Immigration Law Group carefully detailed our client’s translational studies pertaining to the pathologic mechanisms underlying tumorigenesis and the elucidation of new therapeutic approaches for treating human cancer. We demonstrated that her work contributes to the field of oncology not only in the United States, but on a global scale. Our client, a postdoctoral fellow from China, has years of educational and research experience, and an exemplary professional record compared to that of her peers in the mutual field of research. This record includes the 414 citations to her 12 published papers and 10 instances of peer review service.
North America Immigration Law Group sent a service request to the USCIS after the average processing time had passed. We received a reply stating that our petition was in line for processing. Three weeks later, we sent a follow-up email to the service center, to which they replied that they were conducting further review and processing. Our persistence paid off as less than two weeks later, we received the eagerly-awaited notice that our client’s EB-1A petition had been approved. We thank our client for choosing our law firm to handle her case and we wish her the best with her cancer research.
