Case Summary:

A Vietnamese computer systems engineer had hired the North America Immigration Law Group to assist in filing a National Interest Waiver (NIW) petition on his behalf. Based on our background check, he was developing methods to optimize large-scale networks, improve their security, and solve machine learning problems to advance the effectiveness and resource efficiency of autonomous networked systems vital to the operation of national industries. After our analysis, we determined that he would likely be able to secure approval and drafted his petition with these details:

Our client has a Ph.D. in electrical engineering, proving he has an advanced degree.
Our client has published 7 peer-reviewed journal articles (6 of them first-authored) and 21 peer-reviewed conference articles (17 of them first-authored), with his work appearing in no less than 3 highly ranked journals.
His work has also been highly influential, as it had been cited 457 times at the time of the petition. In addition, at least 6 of his papers have been among the most highly cited within their year of publication.
His research has clear national importance, as his development of groundbreaking centralized and distributed methods to optimize large-scale networks is vital for U.S. cybersecurity, which is a key driver in the U.S. economy and ensures national data security. With annual losses to cybercrime numbering in billions of dollars, his research will contribute to American prosperity by boosting data security.
The value of his research is demonstrated by the fact that he has received funding from the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Office of Naval Research, the Army Research Laboratory, and the Army Research Office.
We found that he had also received 4 different letters of recommendation from experts, one of whom said:

“It is my pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for [Client], who, through his unmatched skills in distributed system optimization, learning algorithms, and networked system control has established himself as a force of academic progress in electrical engineering.”

With the work of our dedicated team, and assistance from the premium processing service offered by the USCIS, we managed to secure his NIW approval within 4 days. We thank him for trusting our firm and wish him continued success in his research.
