“Thank you for the great news, you did a fantastic job!”

On October 10^th, 2025, we received another EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) approval for a Motorsports Vehicle Dynamics Simulation Engineer in the Field of Systems Design Engineering (Approval Notice).

General Field: Systems Design Engineering

Position at the Time of Case Filing: Motorsports Vehicle Dynamics Simulation Engineer

Country of Birth: Iran

State of Residence at the Time of Filing: North Carolina

Approval Notice Date: October 10^th, 2025

Processing Time: 2 months and 11 days (Premium Processing Requested)

Case Summary:

Our firm recently secured EB-1A approval for a motorsports vehicle dynamics simulation engineer from Iran in the field of systems design engineering. One of four recommendation letters from an expert states that:

“[The client] has advanced the field by developing patient-specific predictive simulations that optimize implant placement in hip and knee replacements, accounting for real-world movement and complex conditions. [The client]’s research in the field is undoubtedly of benefit to both the United States and global research communities.“

Drawing on our extensive experience and a proven track record of over 32,000 successful cases, our expert team meticulously crafted a compelling petition that navigated an RFE and achieved approval in just over 2 months under premium processing.

Credentials That Define Excellence:

In preparing the petition, North America Immigration Law Group (NAILG) demonstrated that the client’s groundbreaking work in patient-specific predictive simulations has improved hip and knee implant placement by accounting for real-world movement and complex conditions. This innovation enhances surgical outcomes, reduces revision rates, and advances precision medicine.

The client, who holds a Ph.D. in Systems Design Engineering, specializes in predictive simulations, robotics, biomechanics, and vehicle dynamics. Their research portfolio reflects a sustained impact, including 10 peer-reviewed journal articles (6 as first author), 5 conference papers (2 as first author), 3 abstracts (2 as first author), and 1 first-authored patent application.

The client’s work has accumulated 309 citations from researchers in at least 32 countries. Additionally, the client has conducted at least 14 peer reviews for distinguished journals, confirming expert status in the field.

The research has attracted prestigious funding from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) and the Ontario Centre of Innovation (OCI).

EB1A Approval and Outlook:

This successful outcome reflects NAILG’s commitment to championing innovators whose research transforms industries and enhances human well-being. The client’s ongoing work in predictive modeling and biomechanical optimization continues to redefine possibilities in both engineering and medicine, advancing technological leadership within the United States.
