Case Summary:

The client that North America Immigration Law GroupWeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a senior algorithm developer from China. His work has focused specifically on speech signal processing and voice enhancement, as well as blind source separation. 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 3 peer-reviewed journal articles (all of them first-authored) and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 27 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, “[Client’s] breakthroughs have already made an enormous impact in the field of public health in the United States, which spends more public money on healthcare than any nation on Earth. Thanks to the enhanced sound perception that such breakthroughs have brought about in basic hearing devices, millions of hearing-impaired Americans now enjoy improved hearing ability in all aspects of their daily lives.” 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 5 months and 1 day.
