Case Summary:
We were hired to file an EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition for a researcher from France. When our client contacted us and requested to assist her with the process, our skilled team advised her with the required list of documents. Once our client was able to submit the relevant information, we started documenting a strong case on her behalf. Firstly, we outlined her academic background and noted that she possessed a Ph.D. in cognitive neurosciences and wants to continue her work on investigating the underlying factors of post-traumatic stress disorder and other anxiety disorders using techniques such as functional MRI and how it aids in developing improved treatments for the suggested disorders.
Also, we advised her to provide us with a few recommendations in support of her built case, and she was able to obtain four recommendation letters from fellow specialists in the field. One of the well-known researchers contributed the below statement:
“[Client] has laid the groundwork for improved treatment methods for such conditions. Her approach to outlining the physiology of conditions like PTSD leads to improved treatments and patient outcomes.”
The rest of the recommenders also corroborated that our client has continued to provide the scientific community with an improved understanding of a variety of psychiatric conditions.
Thus, we attached all these testimonials and submitted them to the USCIS along with her publication and citation record, and peer review experience, proving that our client is an extraordinary source to the United States.
We noted the 8 peer-reviewed journal articles (three of them first-authored) which altogether gathered 106 citations, highlighting that she has had a major influence on other scholars’ understanding of topics related to the field of psychiatry. At the time of filing, she had also conducted at least 2 peer reviews which confirmed her actual participation as a judge of the work of others. Besides, we observed that her work has been funded by major international funding sources, demonstrating the recognized value and importance of her work.
Favorably, USCIS was convinced of our client’s experience, and expertise in her field, the significance of her contributions, and her past record of success, and permitted her to continue to advance her proposed research here in the United States. Our team would like to congratulate her on the arrival of her NIW approval, and with pleasure, we would like to thank her for choosing our law firm (WeGreened.com) to represent her EB-2 application.
