Case Summary:

In this case, North America Immigration Law Group was given the opportunity to work with a chemist from Sri Lanka whose research was particularly focused on nonlinear chemical systems and networks. We showed that his continued employment in his field would benefit both his field in particular and the populace of the United States as a whole. His work had been published in 10 peer-reviewed journal articles as well as being presented at numerous conferences. At the time we filed his case, these publications had received no fewer than 112 citations from independent researchers around the world, a strong testament to the wide reliance upon this research in the field as well as the broad recognition it has received. An independent recommender emphasized the importance of our client’s work: “ [Client] has contributed important advances to our understanding of network dynamics. His work has profound implications in a wide range of fields, including ecology, medicine and physics. Indeed, phase synchronization is especially important in understanding the workings of the body, such as neural interactions and cardiac rhythms. Thus, [Client’s] research has immediate applications to fields of medicine such as neurology and cardiology. Clearly, [Client’s] research is of tremendous and wide -ranging benefit to the United States.” Through extensive documentation, we were able to successfully argue that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW petition was approved in four months and twenty-six days.
