Success Stories: NIW Petition Approved for Postdoctoral Researcher from India in the Field of Applied Mathematics


Client’s Testimonial:
“I thank you very much for all your effort and work. I have already recommended your firm to my friends and colleagues and will continue to do so. ”

On February 4th, 2016, we received another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval for a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Field of Applied Mathematics (Approval Notice).

Case Summary:

In this case, our client possessed all the necessary credentials to file the first part of the green card process (I-140) under the EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) visa category. It took the USCIS a little over four months to approve this Indian postdoctoral researcher’s petition.  
In our comprehensive EB-2 NIW petition packet that we submitted to the USCIS, North America Immigration Law Group documented our client’s advanced degrees and 107 citations to his 5 published papers. We also carefully accounted for our client’s research projects on interdisciplinary problems requiring expertise in addressing issues of a physical nature. We demonstrated that his work focuses on a comprehensive theory for the formation of quantum dots in semiconductor heteroepitaxial growth, and that he developed a fundamental theory for solid liquid phase transitions to address the effects of flow on nano-crystal growth. Alongside data on our client’s professional and educational qualifications, the petition packet also contained six recommendation letters. These letters were contributed by other influential mathematicians working in the field of applied mathematics. One of these recommenders attested to the significance of our client’s work to the United States by stating: “In order to remain globally competitive in technological development, the United States must retain the participation of [Client]. He is irreplaceable. Without him, the nation could easily lose its competitive edge in a world that is increasingly globalized.”
The approval of this EB-2 NIW petition is another encouraging example of North America Immigration Law Group’s dedication to getting our clients closer to permanent residency.
