I applied in the EB-1 NIW category. I just want to give hope to those who might need it right now. Here are my statistics

Ph.D. in Microbiology. Currently a Post-Doc. Not from a retrogressed country
Only 2 publications and 6 manuscripts in preparation. 7 citations
12 conference presentations- talks/posters
6 invited speaker or panelist participation
Member of 3 organizations with documented active participation
10 Excellent references

My Timeline.
1/14/2010- I-140/485/765/131 submitted
2/10/2010- Biometrics appointment
2/26/2010- Notice of approval of I-140/485, an hour later notice of green card production

That simple, they skipped the EAD and advance parol documents. Do not let anybody tell you that you are not qualified etc. Just have faith in your application and find yourself a good attorney.

Same here. Got my I-140 approved in about 7 weeks. I-485 approved in 8 weeks.

Credentials:
1 first author; 3 second author papers; 1 book chapter
6 citations
Working in NIH funded project
8 recommendation letters from excellent professors in the field.
A good lawyer
PhD from a good university.

So my conclusion is that if you have a good lawyer, who knows what he/she is doing, then you do not need out of the world qualifications to get approved.
