Need your input. Thanks!
Due to my stupid mistake, things become complicated.
My current H1 will expire at the end of this August, while my H1B started to
clock from Sep. 27, 2008. So it leaves 26 days left before reaching the 6
years’ limit.
Somebody mentioned early that the approval of I-140 for EB1-A could not be
used to renew the H1-B beyond the 6 years limit.
I have been working hard to prepare my EB1-A application. It looks now I
might have to postpone it and try to look for NIW application. But I only
have less than 7 months.
Here is my background:
M.S. and Ph.D. in Chemical engineering from US;
In M.S., published 3 journal papers on nanoparticles for removal of
hazardous organics from water; These papers got about 110 citations based on
Google Scholar;
In Ph.D., published 4 journal papers on controlled drug release, these
papers got 62 citations.
Later, published 2 journal paper and one review papers on drug delivery to
brain. They only got 2 citations so for.
My M.S. work had some relation to “Improving the U.S. environment”, but
right now I am not working on this direction; The rest of my work has some
relation to “Improving health care”.
So, if I try NIW, what is the better strategy to claim the national interest
? “Improving health care”? or combine “Improving the U.S. environment”
and “Improving health care”?
I really appreciate your kind input. Thanks!
{The following factors are weighted when evaluating whether a national
interest waiver for an advanced degree professional should be granted. It is
not necessary that all of these factors be present:
1)Improving the U.S. economy; 2)Improving wages and working conditions of U.
S. workers; 3)Improving education and training programs for U.S. children
and under-qualified workers; 4)Improving health care; 5)Providing more
affordable housing for young and/or older, poorer U.S. residents; 6)
Improving the U.S. environment and making more productive use of natural
resources; 7)Involving a request from an interested U.S. government agency}
