Case Summary:
Recently at Chen Immigration Law Associates we received a National Interest Waiver approval for a client from the Philippines. This client is a research associate specializing in the highly specialized field of polymer science. Her work focuses in the areas of materials and polymer chemistry, membranes, energy devices including solar cell, supercapcitor and fuel cell applications, and polymer-based gas separations. In order to ensure the success of this case, we submitted extensive documentation of the client’s highly significant contributions to the field of polymer science. Our client’s work has resulted in at least 5 peer-reviewed scientific articles published in leading journals in the field, 24 conference presentations or proceedings, and 2 patent or invention disclosures. Furthermore, his publications have been cited at least 5 times by researchers all around the world from prestigious institutions. Additionally, our firm drafted and submitted several recommendation letters from experts in our client’s shared field. One of the leading researchers stated, “These substantial contributions are certain to continue in the future if she is allowed to continue her work in the US.” With the strong petition letter and recommendation letters we prepared, our client’s NIW case was approved.
