Client’s Testimonial:
“Thanks for all the updates. I received my green card and approval notices for the I-140 and I-485 all at the same time today.”
On March 7th, 2016, we received another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval for a Staff Research Scientist in the Field of Chemical Physics (Approval Notice).
General Field: Chemical Physics
Position at the Time of Case Filing: Staff Research Scientist
Country of Origin: Singapore
Service Center: Texas Service Center (TSC)
State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Massachusetts
Approval Notice Date: March 7th, 2016
Processing Time: 4 months, 23 days
Case Summary:
“The design of materials with larger energy storage capacities or those more efficient at solar energy conversion are a top priority for countries like the United States, where the switch from fossil fuels to less environmentally-damaging power sources is already in full swing. [Client] has both met and continues to meet these demands and I support him in his future work.
The quote above is extracted from a recommendation letter contributed by a prominent professor working in the field of chemical physics. This letter was offered in support of the EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition that North America Immigration Law Group filed on behalf of a staff research scientist from Singapore. Our client hired us to help him obtain a green card, and the two approval notices that we received from the USCIS (I-140 and I-485 approvals) clearly illustrate our efficiency at getting the job done.
Concurrent Filing:
There are two steps involved in the green card process: the I-140 petition and the I-485 application. As our client elected to file both of them concurrently (instead of the conventional method of consecutive filing) he received both approval notices a week apart. From start to end, he only waited a little under five months to receive his green card. This is testament to the brilliant combination of our law firm’s meticulous efforts and our client’s stellar credentials.
Petition Content:
Part of our petition contained a myriad of information on our client’s various research efforts and their successful outcomes. We detailed his efforts developing new simulation methods for quantum mechanics and molecular mechanisms as well as improving the Julia programming language. We also listed the 208 citations to his work and his 13 publications. Leaving nothing out, we detailed the 25 times our client offered his insights to his peers by reviewing their manuscripts. In a nutshell, our EB-2 NIW petition packet demonstrated the value of our client’s work to the United States and that not many other researchers with similar qualifications can mirror his success.
We would like to congratulate our client for becoming an American permanent resident and we thank him for placing his trust in us to help him accomplish this goal. North America Immigration Law Group wishes him well as he continues to advance his field of chemical physics.
