简单地说, 要有证据：
1. 符合三条.
2. “sustained" national or international acclaim,
3. You are in very small percent Top.
2.&3. are based on the quality of 1.

以下update: ＥＢ１Ａ ＤＩＹ 直接ＰＰ。４／２８ Ｅ－ＦＩＬＥＤ，５／９ Ａｐｐｒｏｖｅｄ
由近往远讲一讲经历。
第一部分：I-140 E-File后的故事。
４月２８日电子提交，４月３０日邮寄支持材料和PP表格，５月２日签收，５月９日批准。
周一（4月30日）邮寄完材料后，大舒一口气。本来在想该干嘛干嘛，其实也正在这么干着，哪知道中午突然收到PNAS的审稿邀请，难过得要死，真的，本来想忘记这么回事，突然来这么一出，让我有非常不好的预感，感觉自己要RFE了。后来实在坐不住，就出实验室去图书馆查询邮递信息，上MITBBS根版，扫号。刚开始笨，手动扫，扫了大概两天，大致知道了我周围号码的情况，恐怖啊。平均每1000个号里竟然有200-300个 I-140，心想TSC 这哪里忙得过来，后来直接集中搜集直接PP的号码，在9001-9999里面搜集了大概25个直接PP的case， 时间跨度在4月18日到30日之间（按电子提交日期算），一并订阅之。当时这25个里面已经有批的，比如26，27日就批，加上之前有别的网友如ALLKNO... 阅读全帖 |
