Case Summary:

The client that North America Immigration Law GroupWeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Research Assistant from Iran.  His work has focused specifically on “fuzzy logic.” Fuzzy logic, though first described in the United States by Lotfi Zadeh in the 1960s, took root as an important field of inquiry in Europe and Asia decades before it attracted research interest here. 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 4 peer-reviewed journal articles and 9 conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 52 times at the time we filed the case, demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the 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 4 months and 27 days.
