The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Senior Engineer from Iran. His work has focused specifically on the application of power electronics to renewable energy systems, working to improve reliability and efficiency in the power grid infrastructure as power increasingly comes from renewable sources. 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 10 peer-reviewed journal articles and conference papers and numerous conference presentations. His publications had been cited at least 67 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, “[Client] innovations are leading the way to better solutions for our world’s growing energy needs and the environmental concerns that are part of many other options (non-sustainable sources). [Client’s] discoveries are also helpful in maximizing available SE on a regular basis since these sources are unreliable.” 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 3 months and 22 days.
