“Top professional firm in the case preparation and continuous update strategies that help the case preparation. Thanks!”

On November 20^th, 2020, we received another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval for a Researcher in the Field of Materials Science (Approval Notice).

General Field: Materials Science

Position at the Time of Case Filing: Researcher

Country of Origin: Egypt

Approval Notice Date: November 20^th, 2020

Processing Time: 12 months, 2 days

Case Summary:

A Researcher holding a Ph.D. in materials science and researching the same field from Egypt hired North America Immigration Law Group to build an I-140 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition representing him. We assessed his professional background along with research work and we were completely sure that our client has a suitable candidature for this visa category. To strengthen his NIW petition application, we provided the below-listed documents to the USCIS:

We detailed that our client not only completed his research work successfully in the field but his work has also gone on to influence his peers and colleagues. His publications have been cited 837 times from 12 peer-reviewed journal articles, demonstrating that these publications are conceded in the field of materials science.
We focused on exhibiting his research work on solving energy and environmental problems through the application of technologies such as regenerative fuel cells and nanotechnology. To meet the growing energy consumption, alternative methods of generating energy are necessary and his research in this area is of great importance because it contributes directly to the development of world energy and the solving of key problems in this area.
Furthermore, we indicated that our client had already conducted 12 reviews, including reviews for highly acclaimed journals, appending to the evidence that he holds a substantial spot in this field.

Moreover, we asked our client to produce some recommendation letters from fellow experts to fortify his petition to the USCIS. Accordingly, our client succeeded to acquire 4 recommendation letters for us to get them incorporated in our presentation. The below-stated words are from one of his recommenders:

“[Client’s] contributions in these areas have provided notable benefits to the materials science field. Given the cutting-edge nature of this field, it is critical for the United States and the field to support [client’s] research.”

Fortunately, we satisfied the USCIS with the NIW petition approval requirements for our client and soon he was granted the national interest waiver approval. We genuinely thank our client for his cooperation and coordination with us that drove him closer to the next step of getting the green card.
