    EA and NIW are complex situations and only a legal professional can evaluate the case properly to give proper direction. Consult a good one.

    I am not a lawyer and you need to consult with one to validate any info posted on the forum and discuss your case specifics. H1b Question? Read the FAQ first.http://www.immihelp.com/visas/h1b/h1-visa-faq.html

    Hi
    Just a background, my EB1B and EB1A both got approved
    Here are my particulars
    Graduation PhD from US University
    Papers : 10 first authors, 1 third authors
    Citations : >20+ and counting
    Presenations : 10
    Judge of others works : 1 review, one Judge in a national conference

    My suggestion is you can apply in either category, criteria for EB1A is tougher than NIW, and EB1B is similar to NIW except that you need offer letter from the employer.

    If you file in Texas center , it is lot easier than Nebraska, therefor where you live is important, that being said, some of my friends who have lived in OHIO (Nebraska center) when they filed it online it reached TSC, so were lucky and got NIW 140 approved easily, cover letter and how you present your research is important, and how you present your case to be of extreme importance to US interests and of your own ability is important, before filing i would encourage you to review administrative decisions in USCIS website in both category and study the reason for denial so that you can better prpare you case, but dont get discouraged,
    contact me me i fyou need more insight
    Peace

    My attorney drafted an employment letter and asked my employer to sign.
    It basically reiterates my job description and testified that I played an important role in the company.

    My credentials are similar to yours: 52 citations, 8 papers, 16 conference presentation.
    But only 3 year work experience. My attorney guaranteed NIW but not EB1A.
