RK's EB1A Success Story – A Journey of Collaboration, Transformation, and Triumph with Smart Green Card

RK is a product manager and entrepreneur whose work primarily focuses on data science and artificial intelligence. He came to the US for his master’s degree and continued working in the US with an H1B visa. Continuing his career here on an H1B visa, he completed four years under this status with two years remaining. Faced with the decision to remain in the US, he weighed options between EB1A and EB2 green card paths.
Ultimately, he chose the EB1A path due to significant backlogs with EB2 green cards. Eventually, RK started his EB1A journey with the Smart Green Card program. Read his story to discover how the Smart Green Card helped him utilize his expertise to build a strong EB1A profile. Gain inspiration and insights into choosing the right green card path for you.
 
Early Engagement and Myth Dispelling:
 
RK took his first steps towards his EB1A journey, reaching out to Smart Green Card with curiosity but limited knowledge about the intricacies of the EB1A process. With a background rich in entrepreneurship and data science, RK held immense potential but had qualms about how to convert it into success. Also, like many EB1A aspirants, RK also carried the misconception that a Ph.D. was a requisite for EB1A approval.
 
That’s when he decided to join Smart Green Card’s VIP plan, in which our team offers not just guidance on profile building but also in-house organic press coverage, research publication opportunities, speaker engagements, active progress management, and more. 
 
First things first, we quickly debunked this myth, clarifying that the foundation of an EB1A application rested on accomplishments and contributions, rather than a specific degree and moved on to the other important parts of profile building.
 
Tailoring a Unique EB1A Strategy:
 
Meeting just 3 out of 10 EB1A criteria does not always grant an EB1A approval. Overall, an applicant’s case should tell a cohesive story of what their extraordinary achievements are, how they have impacted their field, and got them sustained acclaim as a result. So, the Smart Green Card ensures every piece of evidence he gathered establishes his extraordinary ability
 
While RK already had enough evidence to fulfill the salary and critical role criteria before joining Smart Green Card, he lacked publications, press coverage, and judging experience
 
RK’s path was distinct. Having never authored a paper before, he faced the daunting task of publishing white papers. We recognized the potential and crafted a unique strategy that played to his strengths and RK now, had his goals locked and targeted in his brain.
 
And what do we know? With Smart Green Card’s guidance and steadfast support, RK had already authored three white papers and two patents that demonstrated his original contributions to the field.
 
Before his partnership with us, RK’s online presence was limited to social media platforms, scarcely showcasing his achievements towards his field. He was hardly given the online recognition he deserved and Smart Green Card was onto it.
 
With the Smart Green Card team’s effort,  RK’s accomplishments now span two pages of Google search results. No one likes a show-off, but we feel it’s truly a testament to the hard work put in by our press team to get his accomplishments organically published in reputed outlets and get that notoriety crucial for the EB1A green card. 
 
Strength in Unity:
 
A game-changing aspect of RK’s association with Smart Green Card was collaboration, thanks to our brilliant community of EB1A seekers. This collaborative effort bore fruit as he co-authored impactful white papers and shared strategies, fostering a supportive community that propelled each member forward.
 
Our research team spent painstaking hours finding reputed publications, recommending other EB1A seekers he can co-author his papers with, and giving feedback on possible directions those papers could go. 
 
Judging was another criterion that Smart Green Card helped RK satisfy by finding him in-person events, hackathons, and peer review opportunities and working closely with him, helping him with the necessary resources to successfully convert these opportunities in his favor. 
 
A Transformative Outcome and Triumph
 
RK’s transformation within a reasonable time frame of joining Smart Green Card was extraordinary. By dispelling myths, leveraging accomplishments, and fostering collaboration, we helped him secure approval for his EB1A green card. His previously good, but obscure profile now radiates, reflecting a journey of growth and accomplishment.
 
RK’s EB1A success story epitomizes the essence of partnership, unwavering determination, and tailored strategies. 
 
He emerged as a beacon of what can be achieved with the right guidance such as offered by Smart Green Card. RK’s experience underscores that every EB1A application is a unique narrative waiting to be crafted, and at Smart Green Card, we are deeply honored to be an integral part of these transformative journeys.
 
Over the past years, we have assisted several clients like RK in the Product Management and Data/AI/ML field along with many more in various other diverse areas of work. You can find more such success stories in our case studies.
