Case Summary:

North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com represented a President of a Company from China in the field of Sports Culture. His work has touched on a variety of areas of sports and fitness through journalism, large event management, video production, and much more. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to Sports Culture, including over a million words in sports magazines and newspapers, and three books. His magazine articles had been cited and downloaded at least 1,050 times at the time we filed the case, demonstrating that these articles are recognized and relied upon in the field. He has also organized major outdoor sporting events, created mass distributed video content, and has even been honored as an Olympic Torchbearer for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China.As stated by one independent recommender, “The United States needs excellent sports journalists to uphold the nearly $500 billion dollar sports industry. It is estimated that around 1% of jobs in America are in the sports industry, which is a substantial amount. Sports are not as important or enjoyable without sports journalists to investigate issues and ensure fairness, and so [client]’s work would be worth a lot to the citizens of the U.S. The importance of his work is not limited to only China, as he is a pivotal journalistic figure around the world. His future work will help the U.S. to stay a leader in sports and maintain this economic sector.” 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 petition was approved in 6 months and 23 days.
