The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Postdoctoral Scholar from Taiwan. Her work had focused specifically on uncovering details about the mechanisms of biological processes in the human body (like gene regulation), especially as they pertain to cancer and other 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 5 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. Her publications had been cited at least 149 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, “The fact that [Client] delivered such important findings at such an early point in her career is rather extraordinary. This demonstrates that she was already quite talented before she completed the rest of her training, giving her a strong edge up on the others in her field.” 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.
