Case Summary:

The client that North America Immigration Law Group - WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was an Air Force-Funded Postdoctoral Research Associate from Iran.  His work had been dedicated to advancements in the field of mechanical engineering and the utilization of the rate-controlled constrained-equilibrium (RCCE) theory for kinetic modeling.  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 articles published in leading field journals. At the time we filed his case, these publications had been cited at least 44 times by researchers around the world, thus signifying the international recognition and prevalent dissemination of his research work.  The national impact of his work was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “The main reservation that researchers had on rate-controlled constrained-equilibrium theory was the difficulty in formulating its effective constraints, but [he] was able to alleviate this problem with a mathematical algorithm based on physical concepts. This makes for faster and more reliable research and development for the many companies that do not have a qualified worker with the time and ability to identify the effective constraints. Many of the most important defense projects in the United States are significantly slower with the use of conventional models, and [he] has given one more reason why RCCE is the answer.”  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 23 days.
