The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work in this case was a Research Scientist from India. His work had focused specifically on water purification and treatment systems. 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 5 peer-reviewed scientific articles, 3 book chapters, 6 patents and 23 presentations at national and international conferences. His publications had been cited at least 57 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] has made valuable contributions to our industrial ability to use membranes for water filtering, such as is done in the seawater desalination process. These processes are becoming more and more critical as countries around the world seek ways to treat water that has been contaminated for reuse and to provide potable water to large populations.” 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 4 months and 24 days.
