Success Stories: NIW Petition Approved for a Postdoctoral Researcher from Bangladesh in the Field of electrical Engineering with the Help of Our Special Petition Packet
Client’s Testimonial:
"It was a great experience working with Chen group for my EB-2 NIW. The best thing is they are very patient and professional to answer all queries within a couple of days although they deal with a lot of clients. The petition and recommendation letter drafts were very well prepared and did not require any additional editing from my recommendation providers. I requested an expedite process of my I485 filing as there was a future prediction that priority date may not remain current at the beginning of 2020. They took it seriously and within a short notice, made sure that my I485 filing documents reach to NBC before the deadline. I did a semi-concurrent filing (filed I485 before I140 approved) and received green card within 11 months of filing. They also guided me about next steps after green card approval. I am very satisfied with their service and recommend NIW seekers for Chen group.”
On March 31st, 2020, we received another NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval for a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Field of Electrical Engineering (Approval Notice).
General Field: Electrical Engineering
Position at the Time of Case Filing: Postdoctoral Researcher
Country of Origin: Bangladesh
State of Residence at the Time of Filing: California
Approval Notice Date: March 31st, 2020
Processing Time: 5 months, 7 days
Case Summary:
With a Doctor of Philosophy in Electrical Engineering and extensive experience working in the same field, our client seemed like a suitable candidate for EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver). Even so, we carefully evaluated her credentials to be sure and went the extra mile to calculate her independent citation count. Once we had confirmed that we could build a strong EB-2 NIW case on her behalf, we initiated the contract and started work as soon as she had signed and returned the document to us.
Selecting recommenders:
As part of our comprehensive services, we helped our client go through a list of experts working in the field of electrical engineering and narrowed down potential recommenders. We needed these recommenders to be familiar with our client’s 8 publications and/or had worked with her. To our pleasure, our client returned with four signed recommendation letters from the preferred experts, one of whom stated:
“Additionally, the United States has one of the most robust space programs in the world, an area of inquiry that regularly positions us as a leader in scientific inquiry and produces findings of great theoretical and practical value. [Client’s] research closely aligns with subjects that the United States has invested heavily in. The merit of her research in this regard is clear, and it is squarely in the nation’s interests to continue to support her work.”
Highlighting our client’s credentials:
Our client’s years of experience researching wide bandgap semiconductors had collected 284 citations at the time of filing. We determined that her work in her area is of great importance because it strengthens technology that uses wide bandgap materials, which have applications in high power electronics, radio-frequency reception, and many other areas. We also noted the 3 times our client reviewed the work of her peers.
Petition Approval:
The USCIS only spent 5 months and 7 days reviewing our client’s EB-2 NIW petition before granting their approval, and we congratulate her on this milestone. We would also like to thank her for choosing us for representing her I-485 application too.
