The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work in this case was a cardiology fellow from India. His work had focused specifically on the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. 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 13 peer-reviewed journal articles and 13 conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 40 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 ‘incredibly innovative’] risk score has proven extraordinarily easy to calculate at a patient’s bedside with the appropriate medical history. The risk score also contributes an enormous asset to a variety of medical practitioners who need to quickly detect patients suffering from coronary artery disease and are at critical risk of exhibiting adverse [peripheral artery disease] symptoms.” 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 four months and four days.
