The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Software Engineer from China. His work has focused specifically on optimizing various aspects of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and on designing and developing inspection systems for photomask, a key component for semiconductor chip fabrication. 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 5 peer-reviewed journal articles and 9 conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 33 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] found a way to manipulate this pulse for use in faster MRI techniques, also modifying it so that it is not overly affected by common hardware imperfections.… This innovation avoids the requirement for a sharp transition band within the spectral domain through exploitation of the spatial variations of the center frequencies. This allows for better performance with shorter pulse length than the standard fat suppression techniques, both in single channel and parallel excitation.” 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 24 days.
