Success Stories: A Japanese Physics Instructor in Atmospheric Physics Obtains NIW Approval in Just 3 Months, Thanks to North America Immigration Law Group
Client’s Testimonial:
“Thank you so much for the excellent preparation for the I-140. All of the preparation is perfect. I spent much time and made an effort the summary my contribution, but the Attorneys of the Chen Immigration Team made my summary much much better content for the recommendation and petition letter. I read all the sentences they created. They searched a lot related to my research and publications based on the information that I gave them. For example, for my research topic, they included climate change that the US focus on and explained how my research relates to the climate change. For my publications, they added the explanations about impact of the publisher. When I read those, I just appreciate that they spent much time and made my status better. Also, I'm just impressed with your excellent skills as an attorney (attorneys). As others recommended me before, I definitely would like to recommend Chen Immigration Attorneys. Thank you so much for the perfect and excellent help. Thank you so much for your kind support.”
On January 10th, 2023, we received another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval for a Physics Instructor in the Field of Atmospheric Physics (Approval Notice).
General Field: Atmospheric Physics
Position at the Time of Case Filing: Physics Instructor
Country of Origin: Japan
State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Florida
Approval Notice Date: January 10th, 2023
Processing Time: 3 month, 4 days
Case Summary:
In any kind of immigrant or non-immigrant petition to the USCIS, one constant thing is the letter of recommendation. So whenever we receive requests from any client for a petition filing, our team ensures that they have strong letters of recommendation supporting their work in the field. This helps in smoothening the adjudication process.
So, when we received an EB2-NIW (National Interest Waiver) request from an expert in atmospheric physics we made sure to collect as many letters of support as possible for her. Five letters of recommendation were added to her petition from which a few chosen passages are as below:
“[The client’s] endeavors assist the pursuit of an improved global future by deepening our understanding of turbulence in the atmosphere and its impact on wave communications. Therefore, the work that [the client] has achieved is of the utmost importance to improving communications and humanitarian outcomes around the world.”
“[Client’s] study has advanced our understanding of the behavior of lightning and how to construct our urban and rural buildings to mitigate this threat. By continuing to conduct groundbreaking research in the pursuit of improved lightning protection design, [the client] has much to offer the atmospheric physics field within the United States and beyond.”
Along with these letters, we added the following data to her petition:
- Her proposed endeavor is to analyze the behavior and impact of lightning to improve lightning protection, equipment design, and communication systems. Among other applications, her research is also relevant to mitigating infrastructural and environmental damage caused by lightning strikes and wildfires. Thus her research is of great importance.
- It is due to this that her work has also found support from the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Agency (IARPA), the National Science Foundation (NSF), and the Austrian Power Grid (APG).
- It is thus important to note that her proposed endeavor also has broad implications for the United States, where her research on analyzing the behavior and impact of lightning to enhance the design of lightning protection systems is vital to mitigating the threat posed by wildfires to the country.
- On the academic front, she has completed at least 2 reviews to date for prestigious journals and has published 9 peer-reviewed publications (all of them first-authored).
- Not only this, but her research has also gone on to influence her peers. That is, they have been cited a total of 28 times according to Google Scholar, thereby demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field of atmospheric physics.
- Her 7 years of continued service to the field have also helped her collect valuable experience which added to her profile as a physics instructor at the time of filing.
