I submitted my I-140 last September (DIY). And got RFE last week. The following is the details from RFE letter.
"Additional evidence is requested to assist the Service evaluate eligibility for national interest waiver pursuant to the tests established in Matter of New York State Dept of Transportation, 22 I&N Dec.215 (Comm. 1998). (Please note: the evidence already submitted demonstrates that the proposed research employment has substantial intrinsic merit and will be national in scope).
Please submit any available additional documentary evidence that, as of the petition priority date, you had a degree of influence on your field that distinguishes you from other scientists with comparable academic/professional qualifications. The evidence may include, for example, copies of additional published articles that cite or otherwise recognize your research achievements. Similarly, if applicable, evidence of official recognition conferred on you by governmental entities or professional organizations may also be submitted."
I guess they need my citations. I didn't submit any citations to USCIS, because I just have 4 citations. ( my papers were just published on top journals one year ago).
My credentials, M.D., Ph.D. form foreign country, three year postdoctroal experience in cancer research in top 3 university, 2 English papers in top journals, 10 papers in foreign journal, 5 conference abstracts, foreign chapters, memberships, 9 recommendation letters ( 4 from inner circle, 5 from independent professors). Media coverage my research.
Could someone give me good suggestions? Thanks a million.
