Case Summary:
The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Postdoctoral Research Associate from Iran. His work had focused specifically on microwave and millimeter wave nondestructive testing and evaluation, wireless communication, computational electromagnetics, and high frequency instrumentation and measurement tools. 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 6 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 40 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, “I strongly believe [Client]’s accomplishments have been unique and critically important for the field of applied electromagnetics. Few researchers reach his level of recognition and achievement even after many years of study, thus, the speed at which [Client] has been cited and commended for his work indicates that he will continue to be an innovative force in electrical engineering, telecommunications, and applied electromagnetics for a long time. His research and work accomplishments will continue to aid the United States to remain a global leader in science and technology.” 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 13 days.
