Case Summary:

North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com represented a Postdoctoral Fellow from Iran in the field of Control Engineering and Signal Processing. His work has focused specifically on active fault detection in closed loop systems. His research results have directly contributed to a wide array of automated industries and structures, such as electrical and electronic systems, aerospace systems, mechanical structures such as bridges, buildings, vibrating systems, and electrical power systems. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to Control Engineering and Signal Processing, including 6 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 76 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. As stated by one independent recommender, [Client] is one of the foremost researchers working in control engineering, as evidenced by his continued stream of influential publications. There are few researchers capable of the intellectual acumen required to realize the implementation and new applications of such a theory, no less in such an important field as control engineering. Therefore, I repeat my recommendation that [client], in the interest of researchers and engineers alike, be supported in his continued partnership with the United States of America, and the researchers and facilities therein.” 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 11 months and 10 days.
