Another exceptional client that Chen Immigration Law Associates had the pleasure of working with is a research associate from Taiwan working in the field of computer and information science. Our client wished to continue his research dedicated to electronic record management and digital preservation of data. Successful research in his field addresses some of the most pressing issues in computer and information science, improving people's experiences in sharing and managing data while improving related policies. We at Chen Immigration Law Associates demonstrated that his continued employment in the field would not only benefit those in his field, but the citizens of the United States at large. To achieve success in this case, we submitted extensive documentation proving our client’s highly significant contributions to the field of endeavor, including 16 journal articles and conference proceedings, 1 book, and 19 national and international presentations. This is an admirable record compared to that of his peers. Of his accomplishments, one of the independent recommenders remarked: “[The Petitioner] is a premier computer science researcher who has already substantially advanced his field. His proven track record of success is a strong indicator of more excellent work to come. Thus, I believe that permitting him to continue his research in the United States will ensure the continued progress of data preservation and management, help in facilitating critical research collaborations and aiding the work of other in this field throughout the world.” Through extensive documentation, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates successfully argued that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW application was approved in less than 2 months.
