Case Summary:

We would like to take the opportunity to share this success story of our esteemed client in receiving an NIW approval notice. After completing his doctorate in civil engineering and immigrating to the US, our client—a postdoctoral scholar and native of Ethiopia—wanted to apply for a green card as soon as possible. He decided to apply for an I-140 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition with the assistance of the North America Immigration Law Group because obtaining a green card might be a difficult process.

Everything went smoothly as soon as we signed the attorney-client agreement. Our team gave our client all the directions he needed to prepare the necessary documentation before we commenced. Our client thus achieved his NIW approval in a mere 5 days following our filing of the case. The fast and successful adjudication of the case was made possible by the premium processing service.

His meticulous credentials didn’t receive any further requests for evidence (RFE) since we added all the pertinent details in his NIW petition package for USCIS thorough adjudication process:

• We recorded our client’s impressive history of citation count (127 citations at the time of filing) obtained from other experts, demonstrating that his work has attracted a wide audience and has been cited by researchers both in the United States and abroad.
• Our client has actively engaged his peers in the field of civil and environmental engineering through the publication of his original investigations. He has described his research successes in 4 peer-reviewed journal articles (2 of them first-authored), 2 peer-reviewed conference articles, 1 first-authored conference abstract, and 1 book chapter that have been published in international journals and conference proceedings.
• We appraised his research and concluded that as an expert in the field of civil and environmental engineering, his proposed endeavor is to continue his research on refining groundwater resource utilization and allocation methods through the use of remote sensing, data processing, data analysis, and advanced statistical analysis, including machine learning approaches to ensure the long-term sustainability of fresh groundwater supplies.
• Also, his research advancing his proposed endeavor is of great importance because it helps improve water security and promotes economic development globally.
• Moreover, due to his knowledge and expertise in water resources engineering and management, he has been regularly invited to conduct peer reviews and has completed at least 30 reviews to date. Given that only the most highly esteemed researchers in the field are invited to evaluate the work of their peers, especially in notable venues like these, it is clear that our client is seen as very knowledgeable in the field and an expert in topics related to his proposed endeavor.
• Furthermore, his work has been funded by several noteworthy governmental agencies, including the Department of Defense and the National Science Foundation. Thus, his research serves as evidence that his flood mapping models are key in enhancing flood mitigation efforts.

All things considered, we sincerely value our client’s decision to work with our legal team on his I-140 NIW application, and we congratulate him on securing his NIW approval as well as his achievements in the field of environmental and civil engineering.
