Success Stories: Engineering Lecturer from Egypt Obtained NIW Approval in 6 Months and 10 Days
Client’s Testimonial:
“Thank you so much for your outstanding service. I appreciate your professionalism very much.”
On June 5th, 2019, we received another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval for a Lecturer in the Field of Engineering (Approval Notice).
General Field: Engineering
Position at the Time of Case Filing: Lecturer
Country of Origin: Egypt
State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Ohio
Approval Notice Date: June 5th, 2019
Processing Time: 6 months, 10 days
Case Summary:
Exactly 6 months and 10 days after North America Immigration Law Group (WeGreened.com) filed an EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition for a lecturer from Egypt, the USCIS approved his petition. With a PhD in Biomedical Engineering and years of research, our client possesses considerable experience and expertise in the field of engineering. Though our client meets the credentials for NIW, it is important to make sure that he stands out from the huge amount of applications the USCIS received. With our rigorous methods of customizing our client’s petition, we were able to build this strong and winning petition for our client.
Specifically, our client’s unique research focuses on the design, construction, and operation of tissue-engineered bio-scaffolds and computational models for regenerative medicine applications, which is a key to the medical sciences of the US. The many years that he has spent conducting research have led to various accomplishments, including 8 peer-reviewed journal articles and 46 citations gathered from his work. Further, our client also served as a peer reviewer and judged the works of his peers for 15 times. Our team precisely gathered evidence and drafted the petition letter to prove that our client, as a capable and trustworthy professional in the field of biomedical engineering, is of great national importance to the country.
To support our argument, we encouraged our client to contact experts in the field of engineering for recommendation letters. Here is how one of the recommenders described our client and his research: “…Examples of applications include life-saving therapies, as well as devices to mitigate disabilities and improve the rehabilitation of crippled patients. [Client] is an exceptional researcher in the subfield of biomedical engineering called tissue engineering, where he has made numerous contributions that are driving forward tissue engineering, and the biomedical engineering discipline as a whole”.
We are pleased that our hard work paid off and that our client secured the National Interest Waiver (NIW) in less than 7 months. We thank him for trusting us in filing his I-140 NIW petition, and we wish him the very best as he adjusts for US permanent residency through I-485 Adjustment of Status.
