The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a postdoctoral research associate from Iran. His work has focused specifically in the areas of signal processing for wireless systems and biomedical engineering, heterogeneous wireless sensor network design and spectrum sharing for cognitive radio networks (CRN). 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 8 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 52 times at the time we filed the case; nearly all of the citations were by independent researchers around the world, demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field. The importance of his work was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “I hope that the USCIS looks favorably upon [client], given that he has already shown his usefulness to the United States, working on a NASA- funded project and gaining significant national attention for his work. His successes currently are an indicator of his future work; given his groundbreaking research, it is clear that he will continue to be highly influential in his field.” 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 5 months and 2 days.
