Success Stories: NIW Petition Approved for Project Scientist in California in the Field of Physical Chemistry
Client’s Testimonial:
The North America Immigration Law Group came to my attention after I saw their refund policy, which is quite rare to find. As I walk through the NIW process with the nicely organized server, I built confidence in them. Their response through the server system was very quick, so I didn't need to make a single phone call. I am glad to recommend The North America Immigration Law Group.

North America Immigration Law Group’s client in this case was a project scientist in physical chemistry from South Korea with an especial interest in ultra-advanced microscopy techniques. We argued that the innovations that emerged from his research were inherently beneficial to his field as well as to the national interest of the United States, and his substantial influence was demonstrated in part by the 53 citations from independent researchers at leading institutions and organizations globally to his 8 peer-reviewed published articles. The following quote from an independent recommender confirms the importance of his work: “One of [Client’s] research studies has helped establish a unique technique for microscopy and spectroscopy at the atomic scale, through microwave rectification currents, which were shown to be spin-sensitive (able to detect not just charge, but the magnetic states of a material). … The ongoing quest to develop high- efficiency solar cells will benefit from the groundwork of researchers such as [Client].” The extensive documentation and argument we submitted successfully carried through our argument that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar minimal qualifications and his NIW petition was approved in four months and four days.
