North American Immigration Law Group was happy this time to work with an assistant professor from Colombia who works in the intersection of computer science and engineering. 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 to do this, we submitted extensive documentation regarding his highly significant contributions to the field. His work focused specifically on the development of next-generation computer networks to cope with the growing demands of the Internet age. His cutting-edge research had resulted in 4 peer-reviewed journal articles and 16 conference publications, which are peer-reviewed as well. These publications had been cited an astonishing 406 times, indicating that our client’s work is widely recognized and relied upon in his field. An independent recommender spoke to his work’s quality and importance: “[Client] developed a state-of-the-art next-generation high-speed switch to cope with the extreme amounts of information that require transfer. ..., the development is significantly more effective than comparative solutions, decreasing data delay by half. This innovation can be easily implemented as it is decentralized and requires a low level of information exchange. Finally, the invention is able to handle Internet growth because of its ability to accommodate variations in switch size.” We aimed to prove that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than US workers with similar education and experience, and his NIW petition was approved in three months and twenty-two days.
