Approval Type

Employment Authorization Document (EAD) Approval

Following his EB-2 NIW approval, our firm secured Form I-765 employment authorization for a radiologist while his adjustment of status application remained pending.

Approval Story

Our client is a radiologist and cardiothoracic imaging specialist whose EB-2 National Interest Waiver petition was previously approved based on his work in advanced diagnostic imaging, interstitial lung disease, prostate MRI, and AI-assisted diagnostics.

Following the approval of his Form I-140 petition, he proceeded with Form I-485 to pursue adjustment of status in the United States. While that application remained pending, our firm also prepared and submitted Form I-765 under the (c)(9) adjustment of status category.

USCIS approved the Form I-765 application and granted our client employment authorization. The EAD approval provided work authorization during the pendency of his adjustment of status case and marked another step in his EB-2 NIW-based permanent residence process.
