Immigration Law Success Stories
December 1, 2009

EB1B Outstanding Researcher Petition was approved for the permanent research position of Research Associate for individual conducting research on the botulinum toxin for the purpose of biodefense in the academic field of pharmacokinetics (what the body does to a drug) and pharmacodynamics (what a drug does to the body).  The I-485 Adjustment of Status Application simultaneously filed with the I-140 Petition was approved at the same time as the I-140 Petition.  Total processing time from the date of filing to receipt of the green card was 4 months at the USCIS Texas Service Center.  Our Philadelphia Immigration Lawyer filed the I-140 Petition on behalf of a prominent university in Massachusetts.  Supporting documentation submitted with the Outstanding Researcher Petition included evidence of original scientific research contributions of major significance to the field, presentations at international conferences, trademark and commercial production of a vaccine developed by the Beneficiary by a major pharmaceutical company, evidence of authorship of scholarly articles in the academic field, copies of media articles discussing the research accomplishments, a google scholar citation list, letters from individuals who discussed the Beneficiary's research, copies of publications discussing the research, evidence of activity judging the work of others as a peer-reviewer for a top-ranked international journal, and receipt of an international award for excellence.
