Case Summary:
The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work in this case was a Concert Pianist from Czech Republic. His career has focused specifically on performance and classical piano competitions for national and international critics, judges, and audiences. We successfully demonstrated that his continued employment in the field would benefit those in his field, as well as the citizens of the United States at large. He is a leader in performing solo recitals and concerto appearances with internationally renowned orchestras. Moreover, his background and qualifications inherently involve multidisciplinary expertise in musical theory and piano playing. He is able to balance his own style with that required for orchestral collaboration, enabling him to perform at a high level in the complex and demanding work of a concert pianist. His widely-acclaimed achievements are confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “In both solo recitals and with top international orchestras and symphonies, [client’s] performances receive critical acclaim.I have read other reviews of [client’s] performances describing him as a prodigy, a virtuoso, and one who plays with ‘crystalline elegance.’ National recognition and publicity such as this, especially as deemed appropriate from leading artists, critics, and professionals, is reserved only for the top tier of musicians in the world.” 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 9 months and 25 days.
