Case Summary:

“In summary, [Client] is clearly one of the leading figures in these areas of research, and he will no doubt continue to make significant contributions to this important field and to the U.S. industry. He is an extremely capable researcher and key engineer who has the critically needed skills in development and implementation of research in the area of waste containment systems. I am impressed with [Client’s] extensive and excellent training, exceptional research activity, and integrity.”

This firm vote of confidence was offered by a distinguished professor working in the field of geotechnical engineering. His recommendation letter, and several others our client obtained from other experts in the field, was included in the thorough EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition packet that North America Immigration Law Group was hired to prepare.

These letters were accompanied by copies of our client’s advanced civil engineering degrees, data on his 15 publications that had gathered 25 citations at the time of filing, and details on his peer review experience. We also included detailed analyses of our client’s research on sustainable highway slope stabilization, resistivity imaging methods for determining bridge foundation depth, highway slope displacement diagnostics, and bio-reactor landfills. We demonstrated that his bio-reactor research efforts are contributing to the United States’ operational practices of landfills, thereby contributing immensely to the country’s waste disposal protocols.

Our client, an assistant professor from Bangladesh, only waited a month and a half before the USCIS issued an approval notice. We congratulate our client on getting a step closer to his green card.
