On December 18th, 2012, we received another Approval for an EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) just 60 Days after its filing. (Approval Notice)
General Field: Structural Biology Position at the Time of Case Filing: Postdoc Research Fellow National Origin: China Service Center: Texas Processing Time: 60 Days
Case Summary:
When filing EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) cases, it is important to gather evidence that best establishes support for the chosen criteria required for each petition. In this specific case, this client sought to establish evidence that their employment was of substantial intrinsic merit; the proposed benefit of their work was in the national scope, and that the national interest would be adversely affected if their work did not continue.
In order to provide sufficient evidence, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates worked directly with this client to help strengthen their credentials through the drafting of eight recommendation letters on behalf of experts in the field of Structural Biology to review, edit, and sign. These letters provided evidence establishing the petitioner’s value to their field of endeavor, including how this work has impacted their associated field. Additionally, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates cited the professional accomplishments of this candidate through: (a) their completion of an advanced degree, (b) their noted contributions to the field of Structural Biology, and (c) the work influenced by their research.
Considering the specificity associated with this sect of the field of Biology, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates worked diligently to provide significant evidence that the national interest would be adversely affected through the loss of research associated with Structural Biology and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy.
Finally, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates cited applicable AAO (Administrative Appeals Office) decisions that ruled in favor of petitioners with less impressive credentials than this client, in order to provide additional evidence for a favorable ruling on this case.
Using this proven strategy, while correctly articulating the importance surrounding this client’s valued work towards the National Interest, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates were able to secure approval for this petition on December 18th, 2012.
With this in consideration, it is important to emphasize that the processes and expertise practiced by Chen Immigration Law Associates. Not only do we develop the best possible strategies for each case, but we execute these strategies with the utmost effectiveness!
