North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com represented an Assistant Scientist from Nigeria in the field of Public Health. His work has focused specifically on health systems, implementation science, and childhood injury prevention. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to Public Health, including 2 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 9 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. He has also been invited to perform peer-review work for some of the leading journals in his field. As stated by one independent recommender, “It is clear that [client] is not only participating in unique and impressive research in the field, but also that the research being produced is making a significant impact on other professionals working in the field. He has already demonstrated the ability to produce significant and applicable work, work that is of high priority in the US.” 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 3 months and 21 days.
