Case Summary:

North America Immigration Law Group was approached to file an EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition for a staff software engineer holding a Ph.D. in electrical engineering and researching the field of computer engineering. As a part of our legal services, we evaluated his academic achievements and accolades and verified that our client exhibited all the required abilities to achieve the national interest waiver. We ensured the relevant papers to be presented to the USCIS to lead our client to EB-2 NIW victory. We commenced organizing the petition packet for our client after a thorough assessment of his credentials:

Firstly, we focused on his research on designing next-generation artificial intelligence machine learning platforms for implementation in real-time risk detection and transaction control. We concluded that his research is of great importance because it improves the detection of credit card fraud and protects consumers. He is applying his skills in machine learning and system control to address credit card transaction fraud and improve risk detection.
Additionally, we detailed the 77 citations garnered from the 6 peer-reviewed conference articles (4 of them first-authored) and 2 peer-reviewed journal articles, in addition to 4 U.S. patent applications he published. Also, our client is an active member of the scientific community as a peer-reviewer and assessed the work of others in the field 6 times, signifying his firm standing in this field.
To bolster his case, we added five recommendation letters that he gathered from other foremost experts in the field, affirming that our client’s cutting-edge research makes him a valuable asset to the nation. Also, one of his recommenders stated:

“Supporting research into AI and robotics is a key way to make sure that the United States continues to be a leader in technology. Therefore, the continued support of [our client’s] work is essential to the interests of the United States.”

Thus, our client successfully achieved his EB-2 NIW approval and we are glad to be able to help him. We would like to thank him for trusting and cooperating with us throughout the process.
