The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Junior Researcher from Japan. His work has focused specifically on studying targets for cancer treatment and developing said treatments. 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 17 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 189 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, “The research that [client] and our team conducted … enables improvements in the methods of treatment and detection for head and neck cancers, which are two of the most lethal forms of cancer in current times.” 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 15 days.
