Hi Guys,
I have a PhD from a US university. 6 articles in top journals. About 10 total citations upto now. I have 2 nice awards which uses the word "outstanding" in the title. I have some conference proceedings and presentations as well. BTW my PhD is in a Physical Science. I am currenlty working as a private consultant. I bellieve I am eligible both for EB1 and NIW (talk now if you have an objection ). Do you agree with me? BTW, some people claim that with EB1 someone has better chance. Is he right?
Anyway, I consider hiring a lawyer. I believe it is safer and I would have more chance. Am I wrong? Anyway, my major concern is about reference letters. I am sure I can get some good one. However I do not believe that somebody who cited my paper would be extremely desiring to write a reference letter for you. C'mon, afterall it is a citation. I have cited many papers I even do not remember the title and author anymore. I believe my research is\was important for the nation. However, I believe every tiny research has some importance. If it is really important then you usually get awarded the Nobel prize or so. So, let's be honest guys, there are so many reearch going on out there in thousands of universities that nobody really cares what someoneother does or did. So, let's cut the bullshit and talk the truth about the reference letters. Where and how we can get it? C'mon how someone who don't know you much but maybe know your work little bit would write wonderful reference letter for you where he/she will claim that you are the best in the field and America would loose a lot if she doesn't give you a GC etc. It does not sound logical. I need some real strategy to collect reference letters. So, please share it if you have/had one. I would be pleased to read your story about collecting ref. letters.
thanks guys
