Case Summary:

Our firm had been hired by a Chinese senior engineer to help him file a National Interest Waiver (NIW) petition on his behalf. Our team found that he was developing state-of-the-art electronic systems for sensing and energy harvesting. Based on our findings, we concluded that he had a strong case to argue and included the following details in his customized petition package:

  • Our client had a Ph.D. in electrical engineering, proving he has an advanced degree.
  • Our client also has a strong publishing record of 4 peer-reviewed journal articles (2 of them first-authored), 1 first-authored peer-reviewed conference paper, and 1 abstract. His work has also been published in no less than 3 highly-ranked journals.
  • His work has also been cited a total of 25 times at the time of his petition.
  • His research on next-generation materials is also of great importance, as nearly one in three Americans own and consistently use a wearable device to monitor their health or fitness, the optimizations within his research could optimize energy usage in these devices, making them more suitable for real-world health applications, even for those for whom it is dangerous to be disconnected from medical monitors.
  • The importance of his research is further supported by the fact that he has received funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), showing that he has received support from the government for his projects
  • We found that he had also received 4 different letters of recommendation from various experts, one of whom said:
“[Client] has and continues to contribute valuable research for cost-effective health monitoring in the population, which speaks to his sustained leadership in the field. For the accessibility and accuracy of healthcare service applications in particular, it is imperative that the country support his work.”

With the efforts of our dedicated team as well as the premium processing service offered by the USCIS, we were able to secure approval for his NIW petition in a timely fashion. We wish our client continued success in his future endeavors and are grateful for his faith in our firm.
