Dear Officer,

As the prospective employer of Dr. John Smith at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, I am writing

this letter to accompany documents in support of an H-1B petition to employ Dr. Smith as a temporary

non-clinical worker under a funded research grant for a period not to exceed 3 years in the position of

Research Fellow.

(Insert information about the applicant)

Dr. Smith is currently in the United States under a visa received through the sponsorship of New York

University. As noted in the attendant I-94 form, Dr. Smith is authorized to work in the U.S. until

December 15, 2012. As documented in the attached Curriculum Vitae and certified translation of his

graduate degree, Dr. Smith received a five-year medical education and his M.D. degree in 1999 from

the XYZ Medical College.

(Insert information about the position)

Dr. Smith's qualifications exactly coincide with those required to perform the required procedures

under our current research award. These involve the detection, purification and immunological

characterization of recently discovered receptor proteins for mediating the biological activity of retinoic

acid, an important physiological regulator of cell differentiation. The objectives of the research project

include the development of a sensitive binding assay for the retinoic acid receptor proteins, using

partial purification by FPLC, and the development of antibodies to these receptor proteins, initially to

be monitored by ELISA methodology and then by additional techniques involving molecular cloning .

In view of the above description, we hope that you will grant Dr. Smith the requested change of visa

status to H-1B visa so that we may employ him. We have explained the temporary scope of Dr. Smith's

employment and its non-clinical nature to him. He will be compensated at a salary of $ 50,000 per year.

Sincerely,

Faculty Sponsor/Supervisor
