Success Stories: NIW Petition Approved for Research Graduate Assistant from Iran in the Field of Fluid Mechanics

Client’s Testimonial:

“Thanks a lot for filing I-140 and the approval. Words can’t describe how happy I am.”

On February 8th, 2016, we received another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval for a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Field of Atmospheric Physics (Approval Notice).

General Field: Fluid Mechanics

Position at the Time of Case Filing: Research Graduate Assistant

Country of Origin: Iran

Service Center: Texas Service Center (TSC)

State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Maryland

Approval Notice Date: February 9th, 2016

Case Summary:

“In my opinion, [Client] is an outstanding researcher in his field, who has already established an international reputation in the broad field of Mechanical Engineering, and the narrow field of thermal/fluid science, and who will continue to make exceptional contributions in the future.”

This statement is excerpted from a recommendation letter provided by a well-known engineer employed in the field of fluid mechanics. He offered this letter in endorsement of our client’s EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition. Several other experts contributed letters akin to his, and we included them in our well-prepared NIW petition dossier. Alongside these letters was proof of our client’s influence in the field: we documented the 17 citations that his 4 publications had amassed at the time of filing, and included well-worded summaries of his development of environmentally friendly methods of heating and cooling, and his studies on natural phenomena in terms of fluid dynamics. We also demonstrated that his research addresses the United States’ heating and cooling concerns and contributes to the development of new pumps for engineering applications. Additionally, we demonstrated that our client’s work globally affects other researchers’ studies on geoscience and environmental science.

With an M.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering and years of experience in the field, our client (a research graduate assistant from Iran) had the credentials to qualify for the national interest waiver. North America Immigration Law Group (WeGreened.com) would like to thank our client for selecting us to represent his EB-2 NIW case. We wish him all the best with his continued research efforts in the field of fluid mechanics.
