The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Biostatistician from China. Her work had focused specifically on the on genes associated with complex diseases. We successfully demonstrated that her continued employment in the field would benefit those in her 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 her highly significant contributions to her field, including 3 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. Her publications had been cited at least 96 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. The importance of her work was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client]'s ongoing work is highly beneficial to the health of the United States, as she is helping to provide sweeping statistical analyses of health information for large populations of Americans.” Through extensive documentation, we were able to successfully argue that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. Her NIW petition was approved in 5 months and 10 days.
