Case Summary:

On February 22, 2013, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates received another EB2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition approval from an RFE case. RFE cases (cases that are initially filed by another law firm and then are returned on the basis of a request for more evidence). When a client receives an RFE notice it is typically due to both poor presentation of evidence as well as a lack of quality recommendation letters. We at Chen Immigration Law Associates go above and beyond what is required to ensure that clients reapplying for an EB2 NIW receive a swift and decisive approval.

When a client approaches us to evaluate their EB2 NIW request, we first analyze the RFE to see which parts of the petition are weakest. Thereafter, we assess these parts and then ameliorate the petition by adding supplemental evidence through recommendation letters. In this case we were tasked with improving the quality of evidence specifically in that the national interest would be adversely affected if a labor certification would be required for our client. We did this by drafting recommendation letters from internationally respected professionals that work both in and outside this client’s field of research as well as strengthening the language of the previously-drafted petition letter.

When building upon the previously-submitted petition letter, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates believe that providing quantifiable evidence will ensure a decisive case approval. We often do this by highlighting both the number of publications and citations that a researcher is associated with. In this case we gave quality evidence in that our client was associated with significant. Using AAO cases are an often-used methodology for many of our cases that need reorganization and a strengthening of argument.

Using this proven strategy, while correctly articulating the importance surrounding this client’s valued work, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates were able to secure approval for this petition on February 22, 2013.

With this in consideration, it is important to emphasize that the processes and expertise practiced by Chen Immigration Law Associates. Not only do we develop the best possible strategies for each case, but we execute these strategies with the utmost effectiveness!
