The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work in this case was a PhD Candidate from Iran. His work had focused specifically on the development of cutting edge numerical and computational analysis and simulation methods and technologies, primarily with a clinical focus and in particular pertaining to cardiovascular disease. 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 14 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 74 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’s] project proposed a method that allows coupling any desired RD model to a 3D domain. He was able to attain higher performance with respect to stability and cost efficiency as compared to traditional approaches by including variation of RD domain response in the 3D domain tangent matrix.” 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 9 months and 28 days.
