Success Story: EB2 NIW Approval for a Postdoctoral Petroleum Engineer in the field of Petroleum Engineering in 16 weeks

Client’s Testimonial:

Thanks a lottttt for this good news. You made my day :)


On September 6th, 2013, we received another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) Approval for a Postdoctoral Petroleum Engineer in the field of Petroleum Engineering (Approval Notice)


General Field: Petroleum Engineering Position at the Time of Case Filing: Postdoctoral Petroleum Engineer Country of Origin: Iran Service Center: Nebraska Service Center (NSC) State of Residence at the Time of Filing:  California Approval Notice Date: September 6, 2013 Processing Time:  16 weeks (11 days after responding to RFE)


Case Summary:

Another exceptional client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.comhad the pleasure of working with was a postdoctoral petroleum engineer from Iran working in the field of petroleum engineering.  He had made substantial contributions to the field of petroleum engineering, especially in the area of geostatistical reservoir modeling. We at North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com demonstrated that his continued employment in the field would not only benefit those in his field, but the citizens of the United States at large. To achieve success in this case, we submitted extensive documentation proving our client’s highly significant contributions to the field of petroleum engineering, including at least 21 peer-reviewed articles published in leading field journals and 15 conference and seminar presentations. His publications had been cited at least 83 times at the time of case filing.  Of his accomplishments, one of the independent recommenders remarked: “[Client] has moved the art and science of computational modeling and theory forward substantially with his bold solutions to computational limits such as capacity and speed.  Not only does [Client’s] research produce actionable models apt for budgetary analysis and cost estimates of exploratory work, but it provides engineers and construction personnel with predictions that are viable over a well’s lifetime.” Through extensive documentation, we at North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com successfully argued that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW application was approved just 11 days after responding to the RFE.
