Case Summary:

North America Immigration Law Group has a stellar record of more than 32,000 visa approvals over several years. So, upon receiving an approach from a research scientist seeking assistance in filing an NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition, we quickly reviewed his qualifications to make sure we could help him succeed. Our top priority was to personalize his NIW petition letter with all the required supporting documentation and testimonies from subject matter experts to prove that our client is a member of the profession with a B.S. in mathematics, in fact, and holds an advanced degree. He is in a good position to continue his intended research project in the United States because of his training, experience, knowledge, track record of publications and citations, and successful research history in the field of computer science.

The following served as his NIW success ladder:

  • In the field of computer science, our client’s research is to continue his work on developing trustworthy machine learning algorithms and easy-to-use open-source software to solve real-world data-driven problems.
  • Also, his research is of great importance because it improves public health and strengthens the global economy.
  • Due to its clear national importance, his research has also been supported with funding from the National Science Foundation. This funding is reserved solely for research directed at advancing the national interest, including studies that promote scientific progress, advance national health and prosperity, and contribute to national defense. Because our client’s proposed endeavor has both substantial merit and national importance, he satisfies this prong.
  • Moreover, we put together a list of his further achievements in his petition packet, including the 4 peer-reviewed journal articles (1 of them first-authored) and 4 preprints (1 of them first-authored) he published in no fewer than 3 highly ranked peer-reviewed journals. Not only has he completed and published the results of his research in the field, but his research has also gone on to influence his peers with a total of more than 1000 citations, thereby demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field of computer science.

These previously mentioned facts so demonstrate that it is advantageous for the United States to forego the requirements of a labor certification and a job offer. In just seven days, he was able to demonstrate his eligibility for the national interest waiver and obtain petition approval. We congratulate him on this achievement and send him our best wishes for all of his future undertakings.
