Case Summary:

The client that North America Immigration Law GroupWeGreened.com had the opportunity to work in this case was a Product Application Manager from China. His work had focused specifically on clean coal processing 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 6peer-reviewed journal articles, 2 patents, 6 technical reports, and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 7 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’s] research on spiral automation significantly advanced the fine coal cleaning industries and impacted tens of thousands of spiral separators in operation worldwide. Prior to [client’s] innovative work, manually operated, time consuming and inefficient separators were the norm.”  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 10 months and 8 days.
