I’m a researcher currently working in Virginia University. I have numerous publications and hundreds of citations. I believe that I’m qualified for EB1-EA. My boss is also agree to sponsor me through EB1-OR. Can I file both EB1-EA and EB1-OR at the same time?
Yes. Many of our clients opt for filing both petitions simultaneously. Often, one petition will be approved earlier than the other. Moreover, each application may be routed to a different adjudicating officer and if one officer incorrectly denies the first application, the other officer may approve the second application.
