Approval Notice Date: February 28th, 2025
Processing Time: 15 months, 14 days
Case Summary:
After assessing the documentary evidence and verifying the testimony, we confirmed that our client holds a Ph.D. in optical engineering, and his research focuses on developing novel pulse generation technologies and high-power pulse amplification technologies based on nonlinear effects in fiber optics and semiconductors to establish a more effective method for realizing stable ultrafast lasers.
His research advancing his proposed endeavor is of great importance because:
★ It reduces costs associated with using lasers in manufacturing while also contributing to the swift development of quantum computers.
★ It is crucial to reduce this price tag by introducing novel methods to increase the durability and stability of industrial fiber lasers, which serve to reduce their complexity, thus reducing their cost.
In this way, he introduces accessible methods for manufacturers to save money on repairs and replacements for their fiber laser equipment
North America Immigration Law Group has an outstanding track record, with over 32,000 visa approvals. When he approached us for assistance in securing his NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition approval, our specialists thoroughly evaluated his credentials and identified key information to strengthen his petition. As a result, we compiled a customized petition packet that included the following:
● Throughout his time working and researching, he has built an impressive record of success, including 16 peer-reviewed journal articles (8 of them first-authored) and 3 granted patents in no fewer than 8 highly ranked peer-reviewed journals.
● Additionally, he has published his research in top-tier venues, garnering 159 citations. This level of recognition underscores the impact and significance of his contributions within the field.
● We included two recommendation letters from esteemed experts highlighting his expertise, research contributions, and potential for significant advancements in his field. One of the letters stated:
“As [Client’s] work significantly improves pulse generation stability, his research is essential in bolstering the nation’s international competitiveness. Thus, the diverse and pivotal applications of his research consolidate [Client] at the forefront of the field of optical engineering.”
Given his accomplishments and qualifications, our client met the criteria as a professional with an advanced degree. As a result, USCIS approved his NIW petition within 15 months and 14 days, without issuing a Request for Evidence (RFE). We sincerely appreciate our client’s trust in our law firm and are honored to have contributed to his success.
