Success Stories: We Helped a Senior Scientist from India in the Field of Biotechnology Achieve NIW Approval without any RFE

Case Summary:

With a Ph.D. in chemistry and fundamental research experience, undoubtedly, our client undoubtedly possesses the ability to advance in the field of biotechnology. When he contacted our law firm to file an I-140 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition on his behalf, we examined more into his degrees and diplomas, and after thoroughly evaluating his credentials, we established that we would lead him to NIW success and countersigned the retainer agreement.

We intended to prove that he is an essential researcher in his field of expertise; therefore, we added essential attributes to his NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition packet. We noted that:

❖ His work has been cited 217 times by dependent and independent researchers, demonstrating that his publications are widely recognized and relied upon in his chosen field.
❖ We also detailed his contributions to peer-reviewed articles, which resulted in 8 peer-reviewed journal articles (4 of them first-authored), 2 abstracts (1 of them first-authored), and 1 first-authored book chapter.
❖ Furthermore, we discussed how our client has been invited to conduct peer reviews at least 11 times for elite venues in the field due to his knowledge and expertise.
❖ To bolster our client’s case further, we also added recommendation letters signed by two other expert scholars in the field.

Additionally, our client’s research advancing his proposed endeavor is of great importance because it improves sustainability and public health. His enzymological research advances the creation of more sustainable biocatalysts for medicine and biofuels, promoting environmentally friendly processes.

Furthermore, his research has been supported with funding from the National Institute of Health, the National Science Foundation, and the Welch Foundation. These grants are reserved solely for research directed at advancing the national interest, including initiatives that bolster science and chemistry to improve health.

Thus, our client’s education, experience, expertise, record of publication and citation, and history of successful research in the field all indicate that he is well-positioned to advance the proposed endeavor.

We are pleased that our efforts and hard work, in this case, paid off well in proving that our client’s major contributions in his field of expertise make him an invaluable asset to the United States; thus, he received his NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval. Therefore, we thank him for choosing the North America Immigration Law Group to represent his case and wish him very well as he continues to advance in his proposed field.
