Furthermore, he chose not to apply for the EB2 and EB3 green card categories due to extensive backlogs for Indians. Meanwhile, he learned about the EB1A and the Smart Green Card program through our online presence. Subsequently, he joined the Smart Green Card VIP plan to leverage his expertise for the EB1A category.

 

Read his story to discover how Madhur unlocked his potential to achieve success in the EB1A category and be inspired to pursue the EB1A green card route.

 

Once Madhur enrolled in the Smart Green Card VIP plan, we evaluated his profile and crafted a customized EB1A strategy to leverage his expertise and accomplishments for EB1A. 

 

Therefore, with our guidance, Madhur targeted Six EB1A criteria: Authorship, judging, high salary, Media, Critical role, and Original contribution. Let’s break down how the Smart Green Card helped him to gather robust evidence for each EB1A criterion.

 

Madhur had previously tried to continuously apply to multiple journals for peer-review opportunities, but he didn’t get a single one for several month months.

 

After joining our program, our team assisted him in identifying specific judging opportunities within his field that are most likely to produce a successful outcome, and provided effective strategies for performing these judging activities. With this new customized approach and his dedication, he was able to make a much better use of his limited time, and eventually, he successfully participated in 40+ diverse judging activities in his field, encompassing a variety of peer reviews, hackathon competitions, and evaluating individuals for awards.

 

With all of the work he did at his workplace, and beyond, Madhur’s contributuon to the Robotic Process Automation field was far beyond doubtable. This allowed our team then confidently contact renowned journalists with his stories of professional accomplishment, and helped him secure meaningful organic press coverage.

 

Smart Green Card has an in-house press support team that puts incredible effort into pitching the narrative of our clients’ significant work to journalists in major media, aiming to secure media coverage for them organically.

 

Madhur hadn’t authored any papers previously. However, after joining the Smart Green Card program, we guided him in writing papers and also researched a customized list of diverse publication opportunities in his field with nominal and practical peer review and processing times.

 

When the Smart Green Card team received Madhur’s first draft, he had written multiple unique concepts that he implemented in his work in a single paper. Therefore, our team suggested splitting it into four papers and also helped him in the process of getting them published in reputed publications. Through Smart Green Card support and utilizing his expertise in his field, he authored 10 significant papers in his field.

 

Another obstacle Madhur faced was the absence of citations. However, during our team’s discussion with him, we discovered that the paper he had written had benefitted another organization, and his unique work had also been implemented in a company. Consequently, the Smart Green Card team assisted him in gathering robust evidence to showcase these accomplishments to meet the original contribution criteria.

 

While a progress management tool is in place for communicating and assigning EB1A action items to clients, as well as reviewing them, Smart Green Card goes beyond this tool to support each client at every step of the EB1A journey through WhatsApp communication or calls.

 

In Madhur’s words, the only requirement is motivation to complete EB1A tasks. Apart from that, the Smart Card team is available to clarify your doubts and unblock any inefficiencies you face on the EB1A path, providing clear strategies at each stage of your EB1A progress.

The Smart Green Card team ensured that each piece of evidence Madhur gathered demonstrated his extraordinary ability and are organized with meticulously detailed precision.

 

Moreover, our team utilized every part of his work that showcases his expertise for EB1A. For instance, Madhur had spoken at major conferences in his field, held elite membership, and possessed advanced certifications in his area of expertise. Even though these accomplishments may not meet the criteria, we helped him leverage these achievements to further enhance his EB1A profile during the final merits determination phase.

 

At the end of Success Spotlight sessions, we used to ask this question to our EB1A-approved members. In this session, other SGC members could ask any questions directly to them, which would provide them with motivation and perspective for their EB1A journey.
