hselin Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Hi, I am requesting on my wife's behalf. We are planning to apply for the EB1B and her credentials are: 1. PhD in Chemistry and currently Assistant Scientist in a top 50 univ. Currently working on industry sponsored projects and the work would not lead to papers, but only patents. 2. Publication citations: 24 from 3 publications. 3. Due to the kind of work, the lab generally publishes patents: she has 3 published patents (1st author in two) and 2 patents in process. 4. Talk/poster presentations in over 15 conferences. 5. Assistant editor in 1 journal. 6. Few accolades during doctorate studies. Are patents at all considered for the EB1B or journal publications are valued much more? We'll be able to obtain 8-10 recommendations. Also how much time does it generally take to receive an EAD? I would greatly appreciate your feedback. Thank you. Hselin Link to comment
