Case Summary:
Based on the huge number of successful cases, North America Immigration Law Group has developed the most up-to-date winning strategies for the NIW category, which enable us to offer our “Approval or Refund” services to many of the NIW cases we take. However, there are certain prerequisites to be fulfilled by an individual, including:
- The foreign national must be in a position to advance the proposed endeavor.
- The applicant must present evidence that the U.S. would benefit on balance to waive the job offer criteria for an EB-2.
- A proposed endeavor holding substantial merit and national importance.
Our client, a food technologist-quality assurance from Nepal, approached us to file an NIW (National Interest Waiver Petition) on his behalf.
He has completed his M.S. in food and animal science, and as an expert in the field of microbial food safety, his proposed endeavor of of evaluating the correlation of antimicrobial resistance between farms and food from animal sources to develop and implement preventative measures for antimicrobial infections from food sources has both substantial merit and national importance.
Therefore, to make a persuasive case in his favor, we included the following details in his petition packet:
- His work has resulted in 5 peer-reviewed journal articles (1 of them first-authored).
- His publications have been cited a total of 15 times, according to Google Scholar.
- Due to its clear national importance, our client’s research has in fact been supported with funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. This funding is reserved solely for research directed at advancing the national interest, including studies that advance agriculture-related sciences.
Specifically, he will lead the establishment of the facility’s microbiology laboratory; ensure that the food products prepared in the facility are safe for consumers, particularly in the forms of physical, biological, and chemical safety; perform environmental monitoring, microbiological analyses of food products, and supplier verification; conduct validation of all raw materials and finished goods to ensure that they are safe from contamination; direct special attention to the overall microbiological safety of products; and publish original microbial food safety research in peer-reviewed journals and conferences.
He even received 4 letters of recommendations from the fellow experts, one of the recommenders stated:
“Given the growing importance of judicious antibiotic use, the adoption of optimal farming practices, and the enhancement of biosecurity to combat AMRin food animal farms, there remains a pressing need for continued research in this area. [Client’s] contributions fulfill this critical need, and his expertise is undoubtedly of great value, particularly in the United States…[Client’s] impressive and nationally important past track of achievements is a strong indication that he will serve the US national interest. Therefore, I strongly recommend and support that [client] be granted Permanent Residency in the United States of America.”
Thus, our client’s education, experience, and expertise, record of publication and citation, and history of successful research in the field all indicate that he is well positioned to advance the proposed endeavor.
On that account, he received his NIW approval in just 1 month and 19 days, thanks to the premium processing service. We wish him good luck in his upcoming endeavor.
