Case Summary:

The client that North America Immigration Law GroupWeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow from Iran.  His work had focused specifically on the patient discharge error and 30-day hospital readmission reduction. As a Postdoctoral Research Fellow, he has pioneered novel developments in these areas, drastically improving contemporary healthcare practice. 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 6 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 60 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, “He is unmatched in his skill level, experience, and knowledge, making him irreplaceable to the United States.” 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 4 months and 1 day.
