The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Fellow from India. His work has focused specifically on hematologic malignancies, oncology, and blood and platelet related disorders. 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 11 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 19 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] saw treatment responses in multiple cancer types: head and neck squamous cancer, parathyroid carcinoma, and refractory non-small lung cancer, which is usually very difficult to treat. … [Client’s] results successfully show a therapy that is low-cost and effective. This combination also helps to prevent drug resistance and prolong treatment response in cancer patients.” 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 10 days.
