The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work in this case was a Fellow from India. His endeavors have focused specifically on the diagnosis and treatment of various cancers. 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 32 peer-reviewed journal articles, a number of conference papers, and four book chapter contributions. His publications had been cited at least 74 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 his work was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “Some of [client’s] most important research has focused on the role the enzyme AKR1C3 plays in the development of breast and lung cancers. … [Client] worked with a team of researchers on a study that examined how AKRlC3’s presence in normal lung cells modulates the cells’ response to pollutants, which include smoke from cigarettes.” 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. His NIW petition was approved in 7 months and 5 days.
