Case Summary:

Another exceptional client that Chen Immigration Law Associates had the pleasure of working with is a postdoctoral research fellow from France working in the field of inorganic chemistry. His work focused primarily on the development of methods to better control the processes involved in the nucleation and growth of nano-objects, and especially that related to the magnetic and photomagnetic coordination polymer nanoparticles based on the Prussian blue structure.  This client wished to seek continued employment in the field of inorganic chemistry. We at Chen Immigration Law Associates demonstrated that his continued employment in the field would not only benefit those in his field, but the citizens of the United States at large. To achieve success in this case, we submitted extensive documentation proving our client’s highly significant contributions to the field of inorganic chemistry, including eight peer-reviewed scientific articles published in leading journals, one book chapter, one pending patent, and many conference presentations. This is an admirable record compared to that of his peers. Of his accomplishments, one of the independent recommenders remarked: “[Client] stands out as one among a handful of experts worldwide who excel in all of these areas to the level that [client] does.  This distinction has led him to make some remarkable pioneering discoveries that place him in an exclusive category.” Through extensive documentation, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates successfully argued that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW application was approved in just 6 weeks.
