Petitioner is a university that sought to employ the beneficiary permanently in the United States as an Assistant Professor of Clinical Biostatistics. In this respect, the university sought to classify the beneficiary as an outstanding researcher pursuant to section 203(b)(1)(B) of the INA. USCIS initially denied the petition on the grounds that the beneficiary had not achieved the outstanding level of achievement required for being classified as an outstanding researcher.
Mr. Khanna explains things easily and simply
Rajiv and his firm have represented my company for several years. They provided the entire suite of immigration services including the preparation work, H-1B, green card approvals (I-140, I-485) for several of my employees successfully. Rajiv, and his team under his guidance, provided exceptional service and personal attention to all our company cases and successfully won the approvals in all the cases. Quality, personal attention and diligent follow ups to ensure successful case completion are some of their hallmarks. I would gladly and highly recommend Rajiv and his firm to anyone looking for immigration related services.
