Case Summary:

At North America Immigration Law GroupWeGreened.com, we recently received an NIW approval fora Postdoctoral Research Associate inIllinoisin the field ofChemical and Biological Engineering. Her work has focused specifically on the development of ways to reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx) from automobile emissions and to encourage desulfurization in petrochemical processes. We successfully demonstrated that her continued employment in Chemical and Biological Engineering 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 8 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous national and international conference presentations. Her publications had been cited at least 84 times at the time we filed the case by leading and independent researchers around the world, many of whom are from prestigious national and international institutions. The influence of her work was confirmed in the following quote from a recommender, “Her studies are helping researchers understand the mechanisms involved in reactions that are not well understood, as well as providing cleaner alternatives to traditional methods in fuel production and processing. … [A]s the United States has an interest in developing cleaner fuels, [client]'s models and techniques are necessary, and her studies have made improvements and paved the way for future developments.” 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 4 months, 20 days.
