Case Summary:
A research scholar from Kazakhstan who was working in the field of applied mathematics wanted to continue his research on developing innovative mathematical models and algorithms to address complex problems related to electrical engineering, quantum and classical machine and deep learning, and biomedical technologies. He hired the North America Immigration Law Group to help him put together a convincing EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition on his behalf.
We assured him that we would include all the relevant information in his petition packet to help him secure the national interest waiver. Based on his credentials, we proved that he held a Ph.D. in mathematics and that his research is relevant to advancing quantum computing and improving diagnostic tools. We also highlighted that his research is of great importance because it has substantial merit in advancing critical technologies and improving public health.
Initially, we noted that our client has demonstrated the value of this research to his peers by publishing 12 peer-reviewed journal articles (10 of them first-authored), 13 peer-reviewed conference papers (7 of them first-authored), 1 first-authored book chapter, and 2 first-authored books in his chosen field. Therefore, his work has been cited a total of 129 times by other experts in the field who relied upon his work. Besides, due to his knowledge and expertise in his field, he has been regularly invited to conduct peer reviews for an authoritative journal and conference in the field and has completed at least 4 reviews to date. Evidently, he is regarded as extremely competent in the field and an expert in topics related to his proposed endeavor given that only the most highly recognized researchers in the field are invited to evaluate the work of their peers, especially in important venues.
In addition, we noted that his study has broad implications for the United States. His work is vital for addressing national technology concerns and public health issues. Thus, the National Institutes of Health and Kazakhstan's Ministry of Science and Education have provided funds for his research because of its evident national value. The fact that he received this financing indicates how important his work is to advancing welfare and healthcare in the United States.
We are overjoyed to have received his I-140 NIW approval. We are happy that his petition was granted just 7 days after we filed the case using the upgraded premium processing service. We sincerely thank him for his gracious collaboration with our legal team during the procedure and for permitting us to articulate this amazing approval tale.
