Case Summary:
The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Visiting Assistant Professor from Israel. His work had focused specifically on refining the historical understanding of Judaism by examining Jewish immigration patterns (especially those of Jews immigrating to America), Jewish inter-ethnic and inter-racial conflicts (and, conversely, cooperation), and how Jewish identity has influenced relations between Jews and Christians, in addition to American Jewish-Israeli relations, and the Israeli-Arab conflict. 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. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to his field, including a book that he solely authored, 2 book chapters, 4 peer-reviewed journal articles, and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 6 times at the time we filed the case; All of the citations were by independent researchers around the world, demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field. The importance of his work was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “It is difficult for a historian to make such waves, but [The Client]’s deep historical understanding of all the issues in play and his compelling scholarly acumen make him one of the most innovative scholars in America.” 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 26 days without RFE.
