Case Summary:

The I140-NIW or National Interest Waiver application demands candidates to present undeniable proof of their work’s benefits for the U.S. Our firm assists clients in such applications by preparing their petitions for them and getting their approvals from the USCIS. We usually gather the following documents before writing the application:

• CVs
• Letters of recommendation
• Transcripts and Certificates
• Details of publication, citation, and peer review service
• Funding information, etc.

So, when we received an NIW request from a postdoctoral research associate in soil science, using the above documents we collected the following data to personalize his petition:

• His proposed endeavor is to work on the exploration of alternative, cheaper, less time-consuming, and non-destructive methods of measuring soil physical properties using his expertise in advanced soil analysis, statistical modeling, digital mapping, and drone imagery processing in order to advance precision agriculture and organic carbon sequestration.
• His research advancing his proposed endeavor is of great importance because it addresses the global-level concern of maintaining and improving soil health and determining soil properties by developing tools to perform critical tasks more effectively and efficiently.
• Moreover, his work enables soil scientists and other experts to better combat soil degradation. This is why his work accomplishes this by delivering new tools with which to determine important qualities like soil particle size and soil bulk density. In short, his research contributes to the field of soil science in multiple beneficial regards.
• This proposed endeavor also has broad implications for the United States, since the U.S. agricultural industry is of central importance to the national economic health and the daily lives of Americans.
• Due to his knowledge and expertise in soil spectroscopy, agronomic practices for maximizing soil organic carbon sequestration, remote sensing, and proximal sensing, he has been regularly invited to conduct peer reviews for authoritative journals in the field and has completed at least 8 reviews to date.
• His research has resulted in 9 peer-reviewed journal articles (5 of them first-authored) which have been cited a total of 54 times according to Google Scholar.
• His study has been supported by funding from the Australian National Landcare Program, and the Cotton Research and Development Corporation.
• Thus, his 10 years of work have made him adept at dealing with issues in his field of study.

For all of the reasons listed above, he represents an invaluable asset to the United States. His expertise as a soil scientist has led him to create several new soil property detection methods. By enabling better soil property prediction and sense, he has enabled the United States to better care for its crucial soil resources, which are necessary for the proper functioning of the agricultural industry. These factors facilitated the approval of his case in just 4 months and 11 days. We are proud to have had the opportunity to work with him and we wish him the best of luck in future endeavors.
