North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com represented a Senior Research Associate from Russia in the field of Computational Chemistry. His work allows for the development of more advanced chemicals compounds that cause significantly less damage when deposited in natural environments, benefitting both environmental and public health. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to Computational Physics, including 23 peer-reviewed scientific articles, 2 book chapters, and 20 presentations at national and international conferences. His publications had been cited at least 244 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. As stated by one independent recommender, “[Client] is one among a handful of experts worldwide with his rare combination of skills and knowledge, a distinction that has led him to make some remarkable pioneering advances that place him in an exclusive category. As shown in his track record of publications, [client] has performed some remarkably valuable research that has propelled him to the foreground of the computational chemistry community.” 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 5 days.
