Case Summary:
A visiting assistant professor in the field of sociology approached us with proposed research on the current challenges facing democratic governance to minimize social and political conflict that holds national importance. Among other applications, his research is relevant to the protection of vulnerable populations as well as the enduring economic vitality of the United States’ major commercial enterprises.
Furthermore, his research is of great importance because of its direct relevance to ensuring political and social stability around the world, which is required for global commercial activity that promotes a level of shared economic prosperity. This helped us establish the fact that his research was of value to the United States. Based on this, we strategize our approach to his I-140 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition.
We went ahead and gathered detailed information about his academic and professional background. We saw to it that his needs were understood as were those of the NIW criteria set by USCIS. This became attainable due to our substantial experience in the field, having helped some 25,000+ clients receive optimistic outcomes in their respective cases. We thus included some of the following things in his customized petition packet.
We highlighted that:
- He has obtained Ph.D. in Sociology and his research has resulted in 4 peer-reviewed journal articles (3 of them first-authored), one research report, and 4 book reviews.
- In addition to this, he has completed at least 6 peer reviews to date.
- Also, according to Google Scholar, his publications have been cited a total of 88 times thereby confirming that his publications are widely acknowledged and reckoned upon in the field of sociology.
Moreover, we added four recommendation letters to his petition packet. Experts in the field have submitted letters confirming that the client’s record of successful research has well-positioned him to continue advancing the proposed endeavor. One of which is quoted below:
“[Client] has dedicated a substantial portion of his research endeavors to analyzing historical instances of populism, thus providing tremendous advancements to the literature regarding the steps and common links between populist movements. He has provided the field with a better understanding of how populist movements are formed, which is research with direct significance in the United States.”
Based on this multifactorial assessment, it is clear that our client’s education, experience, expertise, documented record of success, influence in his field, and plan have altogether well positioned him to advance his proposed endeavor.
These facts sustained by the excellent case preparation strategy employed by our experts, helped him obtain his NIW (National Interest Waiver) application. We are thankful to him for his cordial support throughout the adjudication process and wish him the very best in his future endeavors as well.
