Case Summary:

For this EB-2 NIW case, we worked extensively with a Postdoctoral Research Associate, who has made substantial contributions to the field of Electrical Engineering. More specifically, his work is focused on Spintronic devices and nanoscale technologies. His direct contribution to the understanding of nanoscale technologies, as well as the design and optimization of devices for computers, has enabled the production of faster and more efficient computer technologies. His work has culminated in numerous conference proceedings and 11 peer-reviewed scientific manuscripts that were published in the top journals of his field. At the time of filing his case, his publications had been cited at least 40 times by leading researchers around the world, exemplifying the major significance of his work. Furthermore, the importance of his work was validated by an independent recommender, who stated, “[Client] is working in the new area of Spintronics that employs the electron spin for novel device applications. Since this is a developing field of research and requires fabrication of devices in the nanoscale dimension with extensive multidisciplinary knowledge, it is very challenging and only few groups are working in this area in the United States. He has produced some of the foremost contributions in this field, and has proven to be a top-level scientist in his area of expertise.”We were able to prove that our client’s unique and cutting-edge contributions to the technology sector would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. With the extensive and thorough documentation that we provided, we were met with success when his NIWpetition was approved in 4 months and 22 days.
