Success Story: NIW Approved For a Specialist with the Help of Our Expert Team and Premium Processing Service
Client’s Testimonial:
“My recent filing of my EB2-NIW I-140 application through Chen Immigration Lawyers was an exceptional experience from start to finish. Attorney C. and the rest of the team demonstrated unparalleled professionalism and expertise throughout the entire process.
The case management system was highly efficient and user-friendly, making it easy to organize the subject material. Attorney C. and the rest of the team successfully drafted compelling recommendation letters and the petition letter, ensuring attention to detail in complex technical aspects of my research while keeping the language comprehensible to a non-expert.
The communication with the team was seamless and prompt. Whenever I needed clarification on a step, the team took time to patiently explain steps in detail, guiding me through them each time.
I would highly recommend Chen Immigration Lawyers, especially Attorney C. and his team, to anyone seeking professional and reliable assistance with their immigration needs. Their commitment to the client truly sets them apart.”

Case Summary:
With NAILG’s guidance, a physicist specializing in materials science has secured EB-2 NIW approval through direct premium processing for his groundbreaking work at the intersection of computational methods and advanced materials. Holding a Ph.D. in physics, he has built a distinguished record of contributions that directly support U.S. leadership in critical technologies.
His proposed endeavor focuses on developing advanced computational frameworks to discover, design, and characterize novel materials for next-generation applications. These include semiconductors, spintronics, neuromorphic computing, optics, photovoltaics, quantum computing, and energy. By creating innovative tools and methods for materials simulation and characterization, his research enables transformative advances across industries vital to national security, energy sustainability, and technological competitiveness.
The significance of his work is reflected in support from major funding agencies, including the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Department of Energy (DOE). Such backing underscores the alignment of his research with pressing U.S. national priorities.
The client has also established an exceptional academic record. He has authored five peer-reviewed journal articles (one first-authored), ten abstracts (four first-authored), and one first-authored preprint. His publications have already been cited 426 times, a clear testament to their influence in advancing computational materials science. In addition, he has contributed as a peer reviewer, further underscoring recognition of his expertise by leading scientific journals.
Experts in the field have emphasized the value of his contributions. As one recommender noted:
“It is henceforth imperative that he be allowed to carry out his research uninterrupted so that the United States can benefit fully from its value.”
This NIW approval highlights not only the national importance of his research but also the strength of the petition prepared with NAILG’s assistance. With this success, he is well-positioned to continue driving innovation in materials science, enabling advancements in semiconductors, quantum technologies, and renewable energy applications that will benefit both the U.S. economy and national security.
