Hello,
I am an H1B IT professional, with PhD in Physics from a reputed US university. My wife, physics PhD with post-doc from Cambridge, UK, has over 30 publications in her field, recently held professor position in an Indian University. She can get recommendation from the top people from her field. Given that I am earning good and we have a kid, she left her job and currently joined me on H4 in US. Her intention is to finally get a position in US in her field, but as of now she did not try for any job because on H4 she can't work. Hence we are researching what are the options for filing green card. My green card has not been filed yet.
Can any one here shed some light if she herself can file EB1 in exceptional category? If yes, what documents she needs to gather? If no, why and what are her options?
Thanks in advance.
