In this case, the client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work was a Postdoctoral Research FellowinCanadain the field ofMultimedia Security in Networking and Information Technology. His specialized research has focused on the development of improved digital watermarking techniques. His work on this topic promotes the development of new technologies that are more effective and less intrusive than current watermarking strategies. 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 12 peer-reviewed scholarly articles published in leading journals and 8 conference publications. His publications had been cited at least 221 times at the time we filed the case by leading and independent researchers around the world, many of whom are from prestigious national and international institutions. The influence of his work was confirmed in the following quote from a recommender, “[Client’s] outstanding work is proof of top-level competency in advanced digital watermarking, expertise which is in high demand today considering the ease of media accessibility allowed by the Internet.” 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 7 months and 14 days.
