Current Research: does a paper here count for EB-1A and O-1?

International Scientific Journal "Current Research"

In short

Current Research - not on the VAK list, not in RINTs (as the journal's own site says, Sep 25, 2026). For the scholarly-articles criterion of EB-1A and O-1 that is a weak basis: the officer weighs peer review, reach and indexing, and five papers in indexed journals weigh more than twenty unindexed ones. More in the scholarly-articles (authorship) criterion and in what VAK journals mean to USCIS. An article about you, not by you, is a different criterion: published material about you.
