The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work in this case was a Postdoctoral Research Associate from Taiwan. His work had focused specifically on the vital visual and image modeling tools that clinicians use to diagnose, monitor, and treat diseases, train and perform surgery, and more. 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 28 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 41 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, “Notably, what [Client’s] work with joint structure modeling and the development of this prototype reveals is the multiple ways in which [Client’s] expertise with computational visual models can impact a variety of different devices and research projects.” 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 4 months and 22 days.
