Success Stories: USCIS Grants Green Card Approval To Postdoctoral Research Associate from Brazil

 

Client’s Testimonial:

“Thanks.”


On February 19th, 2016, we received another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval for a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Field of Plant Biology (Approval Notice).


General Field: Plant Biology

Position at the Time of Case Filing: Postdoctoral Research Associate

Country of Origin: Brazil

Service Center: Texas Service Center (TSC)

State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Florida

Approval Notice Date: February 19th, 2016

Processing Time: 8 months, 18 days

 


Case Summary:

A postdoctoral research associate from Brazil engaged the services of North America Immigration Law Group (WeGreened.com) to file an I-140 and an I-485 (the two steps in the green card process) on her behalf. Our client, who works in the field of plant biology, has years of experience in her area of expertise and has made significant contributions to her field.

Our client went to great lengths to attain several recommendation letters to support her I-140 case. According to a prominent professor, whose letter of recommendation we included in our comprehensive EB-2 NIW petition packet, “I fear that if [Client] is not allowed to continue her research, the U.S. would be losing one of the most forward-thinking scientists whose work has already had a strong influence on research in citrus genetics, and that the entire field of plant biology would be the worse for it.”

 

Client’s credentials:

Our legal team worked diligently to summarize our client’s professional portfolio. Here are some of her noteworthy achievements that helped qualify her for the national interest waiver:

  1. Impressive citation and publication record: At the time of filing, these numbers stood at 134 and 10 respectively.
  2. Educational background: Our client obtained her M.Sc. in Genetic and Plant Breeding and her Ph.D. in Plant Physiology from a top university in her country of birth.
  3. Extensive research experience: Our client is currently focused on advancing the knowledge of food genetic modifications for the purposes of making yields more plentiful, less disease-ridden, and making grown food healthier and more controllable. As a postdoctoral research associate at an American laboratory, she has the resources and equipment needed to unceasingly progress her research.

 

Case strategy:

Our legal team meticulously documented our client’s research projects and proved to the USCIS that her work is of great significance to the United States. We demonstrated that her efforts directly contribute to the agricultural industry’s need to create more of the right kinds of fruit for consumption, as well as to continue research in agriculture, plant biology, molecular biology, and genetics. Additionally, her citrus biotechnology research efforts are contributing to the United States’ abilities to genetically alter fruits so they are of the best quality, with the most resistance to disease, and in the least expensive manner possible. Our strong EB-2 NIW petition packet also established that no other researcher with similar skillsets can attain the same level of success as our client.

 

To summarize:

The USCIS spent 8 months and 18 days reviewing this NIW case before they granted their approval. Because our client chose to file her I-140 and I-485 simultaneously, she received both approval notices less than two months apart. We join our client in celebrating this momentous occasion and we wish her the very best with her continued investigations in the United States.
