Success Stories: Postdoctoral Research Associate in Michigan in the Field of Mechanical Engineering Receives EB-2 NIW Approval
Client’s Testimonial:
I am very happy to get this news and highly appreciating you for successfully handling my case.
Position at the Time of Case Filing: Postdoctoral Research Associate
Country of Origin: Bangladesh
Service Center: Nebraska Service Center (NSC)
State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Michigan
Approval Notice Date: October 10th, 2014
Processing Time: 7 Months, 4 Days (including time to respond to RFE)
North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com represented a Postdoctoral Research Associate from Bangladesh in the field of Mechanical Engineering. His work has focused specifically on the fabrication and characterization of polymer composite materials, as well as the development of models for assessing the fatigue performance of fire-resistant syntactic foam core materials and foam core composite sandwich structures. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to Mechanical Engineering, including 4 peer-reviewed journal articles, 2 manuscripts in-review or under preparation, and numerous conference papers.His publications had been cited at least 20 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. As stated by one independent recommender, “There is a pressing need for engineers who boast the skills necessary not just for device fabrication, but also performance prediction and assessment. Without such engineers, industries cannot readily and confidently implement certain composite structures that are otherwise highly useful. [Client] is an example of such an engineer whose background makes his research ideal for the purpose foam core sandwich composite as well as laminate composite fatigue performance assessment.” 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 7 months and 4 days.
