After waiting a word from BCIS I received a RFE stating that submitted evidence does not establish that the beneficiary qualifies for E1-1 classification.
The main problem they found was with recommendation letters. I submitted 7 letters- 4 from USA and 3 from Canada, Germany and Sweden. They post ridiculous requirement “Is beneficiary considered to be at the same level as the authors of the letters of recommendation?” those who gave me letters are professors, section chiefs and a director of an institute.
On the other hand I presented inventions, on which I am a co-author and 19 publications out of which I am on 11 is first author. These publications are in Top Journals, including Journal of Experimental Medicine and Proceedings of National Academy of Science . They did give no credit for that. Instead they said that science if a collaborative effort and I have to demonstrate that I was a principal inventor/investigator on those projects.
I did self petition and used approved cases as an example.
Any comments?
