The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Postdoctoral Researcher from Japan. His work has focused specifically on developing novel polymer synthetic routes and the sequence-regulation of synthetic polymers to generate common polymers widely implemented around the world. 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 articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 120 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, “[Client] discovered such previously impossible tandem polymerizations with his originally designed monomers (starting materials for polymers). Specifically, he found that some transition-metal catalysts for precision radical polymerization (chain-growth reaction) are applicable to a step-growth polymerization, to give "hybrid" polymers that would not be obtained by conventional non tandem chain-growth or step-growth polymerization.” 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 7 months and 22 days.
