The client that North America Immigration Law Group - WeGreened.com had the pleasure of working with in this case was a Postdoctoral Researcher from Taiwan. His specialized research had focused on the development of improved methods to secure communications in wireless sensor networks. 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 at least 20 peer-reviewed scholarly articles published in leading journals and at conferences and 3 patents. These publications had been cited at least 219 times at the time of case filing, nearly all of which were cited by independent researchers around the world, demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field of computer science. The immense value of his research was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[He] is currently conducting research that successfully works to secure the exchange of authentic data between multiple mobile device users. This is of central importance to the US, for, in the United States’ adult population alone, there are over 28.56 million phones. His work helps to remove the real fear faced by these users: that of being hacked. By working to lower the probability of a citizen’s personal data being manipulated, he is also improves the country’s national security.” 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 just over 3 months.
