Case Summary:
We are pleased to share the success story of another client whose I-140 NIW petition has been approved.
Our client holds a Ph.D. in agricultural engineering and is an expert in developing and applying state-of-the-art emerging processing technologies such as radio frequency, microwaves, infrared, cold plasma, ultrasound, and pulse electric fields. His proposed endeavor focuses on studying food grain protein structural changes and their effects on functional and nutritional properties to help establish more sustainable and nutritious growing systems. This field of research carries clear, substantial merit and national importance, as it directly contributes to advancing sustainable agriculture and food security in the United States.
In support of his petition, we highlighted his strong academic and professional record, which includes 12 peer-reviewed journal articles (6 of them first-authored). His publications have been cited 119 times by researchers around the world, demonstrating the significant influence of his work. Importantly, his research has already been supported by major funding from the National Natural Science Foundation of China, further validating its relevance and impact.
To corroborate the value of his contributions, we submitted two letters of recommendation from recognized experts in the field. These recommenders emphasized the originality and practical significance of his research, underscoring his ability to continue advancing this critical area of study.
“His distinctive array of skills set him apart from his peers, firmly solidifying [Client’s] standing at the forefront of the agricultural engineering field.”
By presenting this evidence, we successfully demonstrated that his proposed endeavor has substantial merit and national importance, that he is well-positioned to advance it, and that it is in the best interest of the United States to waive the job offer requirement.
We are proud to have helped secure this approval and look forward to seeing the continued impact of his pioneering work in agricultural engineering.
