Case Summary.

Gregory Boult helped an Indian researcher working in the U.S. on an H-1B secure an approved EB-1A extraordinary ability petition, allowing her to bypass a years-long visa backlog on her earlier employment-based filing. The case was built on her critical role at a distinguished organization, hundreds of scholarly citations, roughly forty peer-review and judging assignments, and multiple professional memberships and awards. A Request for Evidence was raised and successfully overcome on the way to approval.
