Case Summary:

The client that North America Immigration Law GroupWeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Senior Engineer in Research and Development from China. His work had focused specifically on the utilization of mathematics as a foundation, and computer science and engineering as a tool, to develop numerical algorithms and implement software for researchers to use in physics, chemistry, semiconductor development, and other areas where computation plays an important role. 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 2 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 59 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 research is paramount for continuing success in U.S. scientific endeavors and various industries, since a more accurate, sound classification of water as well as many other compounds has profound implications in medicine and energy industries. To date, [Client]'s research is already being installed or used by labs in Tennessee, Texas, and California and even overseas in Japan.” 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 5 months and 4 days.
