Case Summary:

The client that North America Immigration Law GroupWeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Cell Biology from South Korea.  His work had focused specifically on the molecular and genetic forces that drive several biological processes like early embryonic cardiogenesis, tumor propagation, and cell adhesion. 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 5 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 84 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, “His work is leading the forefront of genetic research; the targeted inactivation he carried out in a human somatic cell line is highly significant, as it speaks to underlying (treatable) mechanisms that will lessen the incidence of related immune system deficits and neural disorders, along with a greater understanding of the mechanisms by which cancer operates.” 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 3 months and 19 days.
