Case Summary:
Less than 4 months after the North America Immigration Law Group (NAILG) filed a customized EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition on behalf of an Iranian university teaching faculty, USCIS granted the approval of her I-140 petition. With our impressive success rate of over 12,000 case approvals, there is no surprise that we have once again helped our client achieve a successful I-140 petition.
To build a strong case, our legal team carefully reviewed her credentials and submitted extensive evidence of her remarkable academic background and achievements. Our client, as an advanced degree professional in the field of radiation physics, focuses her research on the development of radioxenon detection systems for nuclear explosion monitoring. Her research is of great national importance due to the fact that it provides the technology to allow the US national defense to respond to nuclear weapon testing.
In the petition letter, we have also emphasized her research skills and discoveries in her professional field. Her work has resulted in 5 peer-reviewed journal articles (2 of them first-authored), and have been cited a total of 26 times collectively. Six letters of recommendation signed by leading researchers in her field were also included in the petition dossier. According to one of the recommenders: “The value of [Client]’s contributions has been recognized not only by me, but by many others in the field. Despite many of her articles being published recently, they have already been cited nearly 30 times, a respectable level of influence on her peers… Indeed, [Client] is one of a highly respected group of researchers making major strides in the study of new radioxenon detection techniques.”
With our unprecedented insight into what the USCIS is looking for when adjudicating petitions, we are able to provide convincing argument and thorough documentation to the immigration officers. We congratulate our client for overcoming this challenge in the green card process, and we thank her for choosing us to represent her I-140 NIW case.
