Case Summary:

The client that North America Immigration Law GroupWeGreened.com had the opportunity to work in this case was a postdoctoral fellow from Iran specializing in mechanical engineering. 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 11 conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 71 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: “I cannot say enough how revolutionary this work is—not only are bones subjected to [Client’s] procedure stronger, they are as much as 30% stronger and are able to withstand more than double the fracture energy as compared to before the surgery. And, [Client’s] improvements avoid previous problems associated with femoroplasty, such as the concrete seeping into unwanted parts of the bones, including blood vessels and nerves.”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 six months and five days.
