Case Summary:

The remarkable client that North America Immigration Law Group - WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Process Engineer from Taiwan working in the field of materials engineering. His studies and discoveries had been focused specifically on the development of novel devices and micro structures that offer great advantages in applications such as sensing over the traditionally used devices today.  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 at least 8 journal publications, 9 conference publications and presentations, and 3 patents.  These publications had been cited at least 152 times at the time of case filing, indicating the major significance of his work.  The immense value of our client’s work is confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “Even in the early stages of his career, [he] has made substantial and commendable contributions to the field. Discoveries in the area of materials science inherently connect to many other fields, and [his] work is no exception. Researchers throughout the fields of physics, chemistry, and biology have depended upon [his] research in order to build upon it and to collaborate toward scientific progress.”  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 6 months and 22 days.
