Case Summary:

The client that North America Immigration Law GroupWeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was an Assistant Professor from Iran.  Her work had focused specifically on nanomaterials and molecular interactions. We successfully demonstrated that her continued employment in the field 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 55 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. Her publications had been cited at least 489 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 her work was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “I can say that [Client]’s introduction of novel halogen-hydride interactions has revolutionized the field…The information obtained in her study has provided my field with valuable insights as to the strength and nature of halogen-hydride bonding, which is highly important for crystal engineers.”  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  7 months and 18 days.
