The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Graduate Research Assistant from Iran. His work had focused specifically on modeling and investigating irrigation management to improve its functionality and mitigating the environmental issues irrigation may cause. We successfully demonstrated that his continued employment in the field would benefit those in his field, as well as the citizens of the United States at large. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to his field, including 8 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 100 times at the time we filed the case; nearly all of the citations were by independent researchers around the world, demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field.
