Client’s Testimonials:

Thank you very much for this great news. I am very happy! I will refer a couple of friends who are very interested.

On August 23rd, 2013, we received another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) Approval for a Postdoctoral Researcher in the field of Molecular Biotechnology (Approval Notice)

General Field: Molecular Biotechnology Position at the Time of Case Filing: Postdoctoral Researcher Country of Origin: Iran Service Center: Nebraska Service Center (NSC) Residence at the Time of Filing: Iran Approval Notice Date: August 23, 2013 Processing Time: 2 months

Case Summary:

The average processing time for I-140 cases is 4-6 months. But on many occasions, we have cases approved far faster than the average processing time.

Another exceptional client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the pleasure of working with was a postdoctoral researcher from Iran working in the field of molecular biotechnology. He had focused most of his work specifically on two areas of study, including neurodegenerative diseases and new drug developments, as well as cancer biology and stem cell research. We at North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com demonstrated that his continued employment in the field would not only benefit those in his field, but the citizens of the United States at large. To achieve success in this case, we submitted extensive documentation proving our client’s highly significant contributions to the field of molecular biotechnology, including at least 7 peer-reviewed journal articles. His publications had been cited at least 50 times at the time of case filing. Of his accomplishments, one of the recommenders remarked: “[Client] is fast becoming an expert in the fields of molecular biology, biotechnology, and proteomics as he has already provided many significant contributions toward creating more efficacious treatments for cancer and Parkinson’s disease, as well as having developed proteomic reference maps for Penicillium chrysogenum for the advent of new drug technologies.” Through extensive documentation, we at North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com successfully argued that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW application was approved in 2 months.
