Case Summary:

The client that North America Immigration Law GroupWeGreened.com had the opportunity to work in this case was a Postdoctoral Research Associate from Iran.  His work had focused specifically on Informatics. 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 3 peer-reviewed journal articles, 6 refereed conference papers, and 5 conference posters and workshop papers. His publications had been cited at least 111 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, “Not only is [client] progressing the capabilities of the field of computer science, he is doing so by generating novel methods to address and solve problems in data retrieval that have never been considered prior to his work.”  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 7 months and 10 days.
