Success Stories: A Canadian Adjunct Assistant Professor Pursuing in the field of Physics Secures NIW Approval and Eventually Obtained Green Card

 

Client’s Testimonial:

“When one decides to pursue a Green Card, particularly an EB1 or EB2 NIW, making a wise choice of a legal representative can be daunting. I was so incredibly fortunate to have worked with the North America Immigration Law Group. This firm of legal professionals are absolutely second-to-none in their expertise, their ability to work with a client who may have an unusual case, and particularly in their timely responses to numerous emails. Although the EB2 NIW is a self-petition visa, and the applicant does not technically require legal representation, it is utterly inconceivable to me that a lay person could submit a successful application. Many of my experiences which I thought would be important turned out to be irrelevant, and conversely, numerous experiences of mine which I thought would be irrelevant were actually important. It’s difficult to imagine that someone without extensive experience with such applications could possibly know this. However, the Chen Immigration Law Associates did know this, and they meticulously guided me step-by-step through the I-140 and I-485 applications, particularly the former of which can be well-described as a “minefield in quagmire.” And so, with the help of the North America Immigration Law Group and even during COVID, I received my Green Card quickly and without an RFE request. I am deeply grateful for all of their help, and strongly recommend them!”


On September 30th, 2021, we received another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval for an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Field of Physics (Approval Notice).

Case Summary:

Our client, an adjunct assistant professor from Canada, engaged the services of North America Immigration Law Group back in 2020 to help him prepare his EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition. We then reviewed all the documentation he had submitted to amend and correct it, although we were pretty impressed with what he had done so far. The key points we had to focus on while preparing his NIW petition packet were that the petitioner must possess at least one of the following minimum requirements:

  • A U.S. master’s degree or higher (or its foreign equivalent), or
  • The proposed endeavor has both substantial merit and national importance;
  • The applicant is well-positioned to advance the proposed endeavor; and
  • On balance, it would be beneficial to the United States to waive the requirements of a job offer and thus of a labor certification.
  • We headed on discovering that after completing his M.Sc. in physics, he intended to pursue his Ph.D. and continue his research in the field of physics here in the United States. Therefore, we delved into his research background, which focuses on developing improved theoretical models to calculate orbital debris behavior and secure real-time data on space debris. His research seemed relevant to advances in fluid flow modeling, condensed matter physics, and space propulsion systems.
  • In addition, his proposed initiative has overall implications for the United States. Since he has also researched space propulsion systems, a key area of research for government agencies such as NASA and the National Space Council. Undoubtedly, his research is in line with national objectives regarding space travel, thereby demonstrating the irrefutable significance of his work for the country.
  • He has also built an impressive record of success throughout his time working in the field: –
  • 19 peer-reviewed journal and conference articles (16 of them first-authored) he published in numerous authoritative journals. Upon noticing his history of publication in highly selective conferences and journals, it is evident that his research is highly regarded in the field of physics.
  • His influence as a physicist lies in his first-class citation record. Thus, we noted that his works accumulated 28 citations by other physicists around the world, reaffirming his status as a physicist of international repute and importance.
  • As an additional testament to his impact on the scientific literature, he has completed 24 peer reviews for highly acclaimed journals and established himself as a trusted authority in the field of physics.

Moreover, we added four recommendation letters signed by our client’s fellow experts who are familiar with his work. One of them opinionated the following:

“At every position throughout his research career, [client] has displayed research excellence in the field of physics. Through his varied experiences and accomplishments in the field, he has surely demonstrated that he possesses the necessary aptitude to continue his work in the United States.”

After successfully securing his NIW approval from USCIS, he retained us to help him file his I-485 application as well. Compared to obtaining a national interest waiver, acquiring a green card was relatively simple to process because we already had most of the information we needed to combine while filing for his I-485 case. Thus, by April of 2022, our client was a green card holder. We are glad that we were able to support him in achieving both I-140 and I-485 approvals. Thus, we wish him the best of luck in this wonderful new beginning.
