The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Postdoctoral Scholar from Iran. His work had focused specifically on creating devices for biomedical applications and energy harnessing applications. 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 5 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 82 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 think it is undeniable that [Client]'s research is directly benefitting the United States in terms of the public health and clinical practice.” 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 2 days.
