Case Summary:

It was a privilege for our team to assist a system model technical leader, who holds a Ph.D. in electrical and electronics engineering, with his EB-2 NIW petition. In line with our commitment to I-140 clients, we adopted a strategic, case-by-case approach, carefully analyzing his qualifications to craft a compelling and well-supported petition.

As an expert in the field of electrical engineering, our client’s proposed endeavor is to continue his research designing and developing novel methods and technologies for evaluating electromagnetic and electromechanical systems’ performance and subsequent application of such methods for use in design optimization, fault monitoring, and real-time testing to enable better integration of innovations into practical use via improved functionality, enhanced robustness, and increased efficiency in terms of cost and energy while developing new and more complex systems.

We demonstrated the broader significance of his research, which improves the performance, reliability, and efficiency of electrical systems that underpin countless aspects of daily life. His contributions also address key national needs, underscoring their high value to the United States.

To further emphasize his qualifications, we highlighted his role as a frequent peer reviewer for respected industry journals, having completed at least 5 independent reviews to date.

His influence in the field is also evident through his strong research record: 4 peer-reviewed journal articles (3 of them first-authored and 1 of them co-first-authored) and 2 peer-reviewed conference papers (1 of them first-authored and 1 of them co-first-authored). His research has garnered 54 citations on Google Scholar, demonstrating its influence within the scientific community.

Additionally, the petition included 4 expert recommendation letters, which offered strong endorsements of his scientific acumen and research impact. One letter remarked:

“Overall, [client] has proven his ability to leverage his expertise into important and
effective new strategies in electrical engineering, and as such, I feel it is critical to support his ongoing engagement with the field.”

Considering the strength of his accomplishments, we are delighted to share that his NIW petition was approved in 15 months and 25 days, without an RFE. It has been an honor to support him throughout this journey, and we extend our sincere best wishes for his continued success in both his professional and personal pursuits.
