General Field: Condensed Matter Physics

Position at the Time of Case Filing: Postdoctoral Research Scholar

Approval Notice Date: October 11^th, 2023

Processing Time: 9 days (Premium Processing Requested)

Case Summary:

A postdoctoral research scholar researching in the field of condensed matter physics contacted North America Immigration Law Group with his proposed endeavor to continue his experimental surface physics studies on semiconducting nanomaterials. We were able to put up a compelling EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition on his behalf when he hired us by mailing us his credentials. We made sure his petition packet contained all the necessary information so he could get the national interest waiver.

We demonstrated, based on his qualifications, that his work is pertinent to improving the efficiency and storage capacity of rechargeable lithium (Li)-ion batteries as well as creating materials for microelectronics to advance numerous technological fields, such as the production of clean energy and the diagnosis of medical conditions. Furthermore, the significance of his discovery lies in the way it clears long-standing obstacles to advancing more potent and effective electrical devices.

Further evidence that our client’s peers recognized the importance of his research was provided by the fact that he published 3 peer-reviewed journal articles in highly ranked peer-reviewed journals. These articles were cited a total of 54 times by other experts in the area who relied on his work.

Moreover, we noted that our client has built an impressive record of success. Not only has one of his articles received a lot of citations overall, but it is also one of the most highly referenced in the field, demonstrating the importance and novelty of his approaches and findings.

This multifactorial assessment makes it abundantly evident that our client’s work in condensed matter physics is important to areas of research and development that are of clear importance to the technological and economic future of the United States.

Therefore, he is well-positioned to advance the proposed endeavor of conducting experimental surface physics studies. These factors include his education, experience, expertise, record of success, influence in his field, and future plans. We are pleased that nine days after the case was submitted to USCIS, his NIW petition was approved. We are grateful to him for his kind cooperation throughout the procedure with our legal team and for allowing us to write this incredible approval narrative.
