EB1-EA I-140 denied

I am very sorry to hear this. How did you come to know? On what basis did they deny the petition? Did you use a lawyer?
 
Thanks for your concern. I got the denial letter (5 page) yesterday by mail (dt:02-05-07). No email, no message change. I am a self-petitioner.

sorry to know about that .. follow others ... e-file to TSC .. try your luck one more time ... if possible share your credentials and your approach to fulfill at least 3 criteria in EB1 A so that some of us can suggest you to write a better cover letter and collect a good no of supporting materials ... keep faith on you .

I am so sorry to hear , be strong, are u ina visa or something you can fall back on???? , Reading your credentials, i am in shock that they denied you, you have more then 4 criteria. It all comes to the cover letter.
u didn't use a lawyer did ya?
 
You should file it again with a good cover letter drafted by an attroney ... and efile as soon as possible who knows they might change e-filing cases to NSC after few days .. good luck !
 
Yes, I agree with tipotodo. Your credentials look very strong. However, USCIS made the decision rather quickly (~3 business days). So I wonder if they only looked at the cover letter and whether you did not spell out everything in the cover letter. What was your RFE about? Did that mention any specific points?

You should file to TSC since your case is quite strong.
 
Hi tipotodo
I have valid H1B visa up to June 2009. The officer decided not to give, he criticized all my credentials (5 page), for eg. Petitioner have 16 publications, this publication record is directly relevant to the criterion but not necessarily establish achievement indicative of extraordinary ability. To illustrate, (from my support letter) Dr. XXXX list 70 articles, Dr. XXXX list 80 articles, Dr. XXXX list 30 articles ect...
I agree, my cover letter may not be a good one.

This is utterly ridiculous....so now we have to be careful who we take recommendation letters from....they have to be renouned experts in the field but cannot have more publications than the applicant!!!!! THIS IS BS.

Is very tricky, if you in the TOP of the filed, you can't compare yourself to people with more credentials then you, is thin line.
 
NSC is crazy

I am extremly sorry to hear this. I know how much stress and pain you have.
It is really rediculous that they deny, on no criteria> your backgroud looks excellent. what more they want?
You may try like madgu, and I do not find any other alternative, since you are from India.
 
Don't lose hope !

Hey dude,

Sorry to hear but then follow some of the examples set by some members like madgu and apply again to TSC. But see if you can get a nice attorney and get a good cover letter for your application. I think this is the most important paper of your application. Also make sure you have letters from people who have more than 100 papers and are well known. If they have less than 100 then it would be good to mention in your cover letter about their contribution to the filed and how they are right people to talk about you. I think you have good credientials and to be frank and honest with you I have seen some friends with less creidt.... than you. So dont loose hope and reapply asap. Best of luck.

If you want input from us all, please post point by point reasons of their denial.

You credential does not deserve denial until there is a something not right.

Cover letter

Hi
Congratulation for your GC.
After receiving model cover letters from our friends, I realized that my cover letter was very bad. I did not defend the case point by point. The main reason for the denial is poor presentation of national or international acclaim. Towards this point now I am collecting several news paper articles highlighting my (also our team) research work. Also, trying to get some strong reco letters. Let me see how it goes. Thanks for your support.
