Postdoc applying in EB1A or EB1-OR

Published Aug 10,2015 By Rosh

Hi, I am currently holding a project scientist position (3 yr post PhD) in a reputed university in United states. I am on J-1 visa right now and eligible for 2yr rule. I will be getting my waiver soon. My university will only file a petition for EB1- for outstanding researcher only if I waive my visa to H-1B. I am not sure if thats currently possible. Therefore, I was considering to file a self petition under EB1-EA. Can I still file under J-1?  Which one do you think is better EB1- Outstanding researcher or EB1-EA? Please take a look at my credentials below. Do I stand a chance and should I go ahead with self petiition for EB1-EA? My Nationality is Indian.

Credentials : 11 publications and 73 citations, Work mentioned in 2 international journal Newsletter, 2 international awards for poster presentation (1 as 1st author and 1 as 2nd author), different work on the cover page of 2 reputed journals, I can provide 6 to 7 good references,  Reviewed 9 papers in 4 international journals, invited for Oral presentation at international conference, Presented work in several international conferences, chapter in a book as a second author. 

I will appreciate if you can help me answering my question. Thank You

Regards

Rosh
