Case Summary:
At our firm, we prioritize our I-140 clients and strive to provide them with the most innovative approach possible. Our goal is to work closely with each individual to identify the unique aspects of their case, which in turn can increase their chances of approval. Thus, when our client from China, a Life Science Researcher approached the North America Immigration Law Group to help her file an NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition, we evaluated her research thoroughly and concluded that her work is of great importance because it provides important insights into diet and clinical risk factors, which plays an essential role in human health.
We commenced by emphasizing that she received a Ph.D. in nutrition and that her work is relevant to enhancing human health. We submitted a detailed assessment that evaluates the petitioner’s education, skills, knowledge, and record of success in related efforts. Additionally, we submitted a model or plan for future activities, any progress made toward achieving the proposed endeavor, and the interest of potential customers, users, investors, or other relevant entities or individuals. Here are a few pointers we added to the petition:
- We noted that at the time of filing, she had published 8 peer-reviewed journal articles (4 of them first-authored or co-first-authored) in no fewer than 6 highly-ranked peer-reviewed journals. Along with her recognition by reputed researchers, her research has also encouraged her fellow researchers in the field of life sciences. Her papers have been cited 50 times by researchers in her chosen field.
- It is highly impressive that as an expert in the field of life sciences, our client’s proposed endeavor is to continue her research promoting human health through dietary and clinical methods.
- Due to her research’s evident national importance, it has further been backed with financial support from several major industry organizations. Consequently, this work represents progress toward her larger goal of advancing public health through dietary and clinical methods.
Moreover, to bolster her NIW petition packet, we also added 4 recommendation letters obtained from other experts in the field, who provided additional insight into the merit of her intended research. In sum, her work on evaluating dietary requirements in U.S. adults serves as evidence that she has already made progress toward her larger effort to advance improving public health through dietary and clinical methods.
We are pleased to affirm that the petition has been approved, which highlights the importance of our commitment to the individual needs of each and every one of our clients. We are thrilled to have earned this approval for our esteemed client in just 4 days without any further Request for Evidence (RFE). A special thanks to the USCIS premium processing service, which is a paid service that allows petitioners to enjoy accelerated adjudication (the case will be processed within 15 days instead of 9-12 months). We sincerely congratulate our client on achieving this fantastic milestone.
