In our nationwide travels to educate people on U.S. immigration law, we have made contact with many postdoctoral students, professors and researchers across a full range of academic disciplines and fields. As a result, helping these people with their immigration issues has become a special focus of our firm. If you are a professor, researcher or other highly qualified academic, we strongly encourage you to contact us to discuss your immigration questions and needs.
Los Angeles EB-1 Visa Lawyers for Professors & Researchers
An accomplished researcher may qualify for both an EB-1 visa for Outstanding Professors and Researchers and a National Interest Waiver (NIW), also called an EB-2. Guideline language for the two differs in several respects, but the major difference between these two petition types is that an EB-1 visa requires your intended employer to petition on your behalf. This may be a university, research institute or a company.
Knowledgeable Evaluation of Your Qualifications
Our immigration lawyers and staff will evaluate your résumé or curriculum vitae (CV), publications and other accomplishments in your field in order to determine the best approach for obtaining your green card. Our experience enables us to direct you to the visa category that offers the best chance of success and to position and present your qualifications with maximum effectiveness.
Positioning Your EB-1 Visa Petition for Success
Common misconceptions prevent some qualified applicants from pursuing an EB-1 or EB-2 visa. It is important to recognize that there is no absolute formula for determining who qualifies and that you do not need to have completed your academic studies to have your petition succeed.
