Case Summary:

Given our client’s extensive research background and MSc in computer science, he evidently possesses the necessary skills to advance in the field of electrical engineering. When our client approached our law firm to file an I-140 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition on his behalf, we investigated his degrees and diplomas further. We thoroughly examined his credentials and determined that we could be of assistance to him at NIW. Based on this determination, we countersigned the retainer agreement.

In order to support our claim that our client is a cornerstone researcher in his profession, we included supporting documentation in his petition packet for the National Interest Waiver (NIW).

• First, we specified our client’s research on strengthening physical building systems in order to detect and prevent cyberattacks, reduce HVAC energy consumption, and improve environmental quality for building occupants. We concluded that his research related to physical building systems has great substantial merit and national importance. Among other applications, his research is relevant to developing high entropy alloys, advancing artificial intelligence, and promoting smart building technologies.
• Also, we noted that throughout his time working in the field, he has built an impressive record of success, including his contributions to eight peer-reviewed journal articles (four of them first-authored) and one conference paper that was produced as a result of his peer-reviewed conference articles.
• In addition to concluding his fieldwork and publishing his results, he has impacted his colleagues with his effort. Stated differently, his work has been cited 19 times overall, according to Google Scholar, demonstrating its reputation and dependability in the field of electrical engineering. His citation history makes it clear that he has had a significant impact on other academics’ understanding of related subjects.
• He also has been invited several times to review the work of colleagues prior to publication. His review work is a clear sign that he is respected by his peers and seen as a knowledgeable researcher. Due to his knowledge and expertise in artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning, the Internet of things, and cyber security, he has completed 3 peer reviews to date.
• Besides, he is leading a research team on a project funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, to develop and administer a communication protocol for a smart-building automation and control network.

We are pleased to announce that our hard work and dedication have paid off in this case. We were able to demonstrate that our client’s research is of great importance, as it promotes the development of high entropy alloys and makes him an invaluable asset to the United States. As a result, he was granted approval for his NIW (National Interest Waiver) within just four months, without the need for a premium processing upgrade, due to his strong and legitimate research background. We are grateful to him for choosing our firm, North America Immigration Law Group, to handle his NIW and I-485 applications, and we extend our best wishes for his future success in his chosen field. Our team also assisted him in retaining approvals for both his and his spouse’s I-485 applications, which was a great accomplishment for us.
