The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Postdoctoral Associate from Ukraine. His work has focused specifically on the synthesis and study of copper(I) complexes, multinuclear iron(II) spin-crossover complexes, and new fabrication techniques of dimethyl ether. We successfully demonstrated that his continued employment in the field would benefit those in his 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 his highly significant contributions to his field, including 10 peer-reviewed journal articlesand numerous conference presentations. His publications had been cited at least 26 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 his work was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “As another example of the benefits [client’s] groundbreaking research, his work expanding and characterizing the copper(I) carboxylate family is laying the foundation for the development of methods to control their properties by altering the nuclearities and solid state structures of the clusters, for technological advancements based on their photoluminescence.” 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. His NIW petition was approved in 10 months and 15 days.
