The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a PhD Candidate from United Arab Emirates. His work had focused specifically on the fire resistance of composite structural 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 16 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 73 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, “…I strongly recommend [Client] as one who will continue to set new standards for high-achievement in the United States […] through his technical mastery of the most modern, advanced instruments in the field, and his unmatchable civil engineering expertise.” 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 18 days.
