Client's Testimonial:
Thank you for all the help!
On June 17th, 2013, we received another EB2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) Approval for an Optical Engineer in the Field of Photonics (Approval Notice)
General Field: Photonics Position at the Time of Case Filing: Optical Engineer National Origin: Taiwan Service Center: Nebraska Service Center (NSC) State Residing at the Time of Filing: California Approval Notice Date: June 17, 2013 Processing Time: 5 months
Case Summary:
Recently at Chen Immigration we received a National Interest Waiver approval for a client from Taiwan. This client is a optical engineer specializing in photonics. Her work has focused primarily on laser spectroscopy and semiconductor lasers, particularly the development of high power optically pumped semiconductor lasers. In order to ensure the success of this case, we submitted extensive documentation of the client’s highly significant contributions to her field. Our client’s work has resulted in at least 11 peer-reviewed scientific articles published in leading journals in the field, and 13 conference presentations. Furthermore, her publications have been cited at least 107 times by researchers all around the world from prestigious institutions. Additionally, our firm drafted and submitted several recommendation letters from experts in our client’s shared field. One of the leading researchers in the field said the following concerning the potential loss of our client’s contributions to the field of endeavor, “[The Petitioner's] special focus on lasers means that her work will have direct impact on technologies employed by the U.S. defense department, among other applications. Thus, her work is definitively in the national interest, and she should be granted permission to remain in the country.” With the strong petition letter and recommendation letters we prepared, our client’s NIW case was approved in 5 months.
