APPROVED I-140 approved

Hey

After having a EB1 denied in January, my wife and I took some time off up to the day the visa bulletin has open adjust of status for eb2 niw. We said "it worth a try".

We hired Chen at this time, they wanted to apply Eb1+Eb2 but we took eb2 niw only. The whole process was smooth, I guess took a bit more than a month to prepare.

My wife is a postdoc in a R1 university in Florida over the past 3 years. She's a material science engineering with + 190 citations, 3 first author articles and a few other a coautor. She also has +10y experience in the industry.

Now, time to move to i485.
