“I tried one time. But I didn't asked plainly from the referee to write a letter of recommendation for me. Instead, I wrote to apply a postdoctor position from him, and asked him to evaluate my qualifications no matter he would offer me or not. The professor didn't have funding at that time, but he still felt happy to provide his evaluations in his responding letter. It's only a couple of sentences. I used this as a supportive document for my 140 petition. It worked out. I think this kind of document is even more important than the letters from your acquaintances because in these days, INS attached increasing importance to the idependent judgements.”
ZHZHYMGC，你好！在收到 NIW 的RFE后，我一直在苦苦地找一封FEDERAL 的推荐信。但是努力了两个月还是未果。读了你以上的帖子后很有启发。我在去年的时候申请过一个FEDERAL 的研究所的POSTDOC 位置。那个教授给我EMAIL 称我很QUALIFIED FOR THE POSITION。后因他们要公民我的申请也就不了了之。前几星期我试着联系那个教授让写一个EVALUATION LETTER，但他没回我的EMAIL。我想他是不愿意写。我现在还是没有着落FEDERAL 的推荐信，请问ZHZYMGC，我能那他以前的EMAIL (也就几句话) 去试吗？谢谢你的回答。
