North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com represented a Technical Engineer in New York in the field of Electronic and Electrical Engineering. His work has focused specifically on the use of the field-effect transistor (FET) in semiconductor technology. We successfully demonstrated that his continued employment in the field would benefit those in his field, as well as the citizens of the United States at large. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to his field, including 11 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His work had been cited at least 75 times at the time we filed the case; nearly all of the citations were by independent researchers around the world, demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field. The significance of his accomplishments was confirmed in the following quote from a recommender, “All of this research is exemplary of a phenomenal researcher who is unafraid of taking on difficult and pivotal work. With his innovative approaches to major issues, [he] sets himself apart from other semiconductor researchers without such talent and drive. Because [his] unique skills are filling an important role in the United States’ economic system, he cannot be adequately replaced by any other researcher.” Through extensive documentation, we were able to successfully argue that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW petition was approved in 6 months and 9 days.
