Form I-140 (EB1A)
We filed a Form I-140 petition for a professional cricketer in the EB1A category. This immigration preference category is for foreign nationals of extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics. After receiving an RFE questioning the applicant’s eligibility, we responded with documentation evidencing that the applicant has a level of expertise indicating that he is one of that small percentage who have risen to the very top of the field of endeavor.
Status
Form I-140 approved
My I-140 was denied because of some issues with educational evaluation (B.Sc(Tech) equivalence to B.E) that was done with my first H1. We worked closely with Rajiv ji and Sheena ji in getting the issue resolved. We filed an appeal notice with a new detailed educational evaluation and got the I-140 approval with in 15-20 days. My I-485 that was also denied was also returned to pending status. I was very happy with the whole experience and the way the issue was handled and resolved.
I would like to thank Sheena ji and Rajiv ji for the pleasant and swift way the appeal process was handled.
