Client’s Testimonial:
“Applying for a green card is never meant to be a pleasant journey, but WeGreened made this process as smooth as possible. Many folks have talked about their professionalism and responsiveness. I would second these without any reservations: they really know what [they are doing]. They produced very strong material based on solid fact and information, in a timely manner. Moreover, I have a strong feeling that they really care about their clients. They guided me every step throughout the process. They even answered questions not directly related to the green card application (e.g., legal implication of actions on employment and family event) very carefully and thoroughly. This feeling led me to have peace of mind because I know that I have put a very important matter in good hands. They definitely raised the bar on this type of legal service. I have already recommended WeGreened to friends, colleagues and other fellows around me. From the bottom of my heart, I hope they can keep growing their business, to benefit more and more people who need help [with] immigration law services.”
On February 29th, 2016, we received another EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) approval for a Transportation Engineer and System Analyst in the Field of Civil Engineering (Approval Notice).
General Field: Civil Engineering

Case Summary:
North America Immigration Law Group (WeGreened.com) was hired to file an EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) petition on behalf of a transportation engineer and system analyst from China. We recently received the good news that our client’s petition had been approved and that he is one step closer to his green card.
A myriad of factors came into play which inherently led to the case approval. Here are several of them:
Conclusive Research Results:
The fact that our client has years of experience in the field of civil engineering allowed us to demonstrate to the USCIS that he is fully equipped with the knowledge and skills to carry out meritorious research. We proved that his current work on the application of artificial intelligence in transportation, the simulation of traffic and communication networks, analyzing and improving emergency evacuation, hazardous materials transportation, and smart vehicle and highway systems is of great importance to the United States.
Compelling Credentials:
When we filed the case, our client had published 28 scientific articles and conducted 13 presentations at national and international conferences. We also incorporated data on his peer review experience (28 reviews for more than 8 high impact scientific journals) and listed his citation record (274 citations). Our client’s outstanding credentials clearly showcase his expertise in the field of civil engineering.
Valued Opinions:
“… [Several] institutions have recognized [Client] as a top researcher in the field, whose insights and developments are crucial for the planning efforts that keep citizens safe during evacuations and emergencies. I, too, hold [Client’s] research in the highest regard, and I have no doubt that his talent and creativity will continue [to] make him an excellent to the U.S. emergency management and transportation research communities. I therefore author this recommendation for his continued support.”
This statement is taken from a recommendation letter that was contributed by a top civil engineer in support of our client’s EB1A petition. Several other experts agreed to lend their support, and their letters were included in our petition packet. These letters supplied the USCIS with further evidence that our client’s work is essential to not just other researchers in the field, but to the United States as a whole.
Approval Notice:
Overall, the USCIS spent 9 months and 7 days adjudicating this case before they granted their approval. Now all our client has to do is file an I-485 application (final step in the green card process) and once that is approved, he will receive his green card.
