Success Story: NIW Approval in Less Than Two Months for a Structural Engineer Working for a Corporation With Only 17 Citations to His Work

Client’s Testimonial:

Thank you very much for all the help. I am very grateful.


On November 18th, 2013, We Received Another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) Approval for a Structural Engineer in the Field of Structural Engineering (Approval Notice)


General Field: Structural Engineering

Position at the Time of Case Filing: Structural Engineer

Country of Origin: Iran

Service Center: Texas Service Center (TSC)

State of Residence at the Time of Filing:  Maryland

Approval Notice Date: November 18, 2013

Processing Time:  1 month, 29 days


Case Summary:

The distinguished client that North America Immigration Law GroupWeGreened.com had the pleasure of working with in this case was a Structural Engineer from Iran working in the field of structural engineering.  His work had focused specifically on issues related to the integrity and strength of cold-formed steel structures.  His research results have directly contributed to our collective understanding of the soundness of the nation’s buildings and have been widely implemented throughout the manufacturing industry to increase the quality and safety of cold-formed steel components. We demonstrated that his continued employment in the field would not only benefit those in his field, but the citizens of the United States at large. To achieve success in this case, we submitted extensive documentation proving our client’s highly significant contributions to the field of structural engineering, including at least 4 peer-reviewed journal articles, 12 conference papers, and 1 first-authored technical report. His publications had been cited at least 17 times at the time of case filing, demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in his field.  The following quote from an international expert confirms that his influence has spread well beyond the boundaries of his own research, “[He] has shown an incredible capacity within the field to introduce stunningly new methods and results that are currently reshaping the steel industry…. His recent research has already proved crucial and has led to changes in industry standards…. In addition to changes made to ASTM standards, this research also led to [his] design and development of a measurement apparatus at [. . .] University which could measure the out-of-straightness imperfections on steel members up to eight feet long, and in a number of difference directions. Because of the device’s accuracy, combined with its portability, it was shipped to a number of steel-manufacturing locations around the United States, including steel plants in New York, Florida, Illinois, California, Arizona, and Maryland.”  Through extensive documentation, we were able to successfully argue that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW application was approved in less than two months.
