Case Summary:

Our firm was hired by a Chinese medical device engineer with a Ph.D. in materials science to assist him in filing a National Interest Waiver (NIW) petition. He was developing innovative semiconductor-based biomedical devices and healthcare technologies for cost-effective, robust, and accessible disease diagnosis and treatments. His specialized knowledge, among other factors, has our team convinced that he would be a good candidate for receiving an NIW visa, and our team drafted his petition with the following details:

He has published 5 peer-reviewed journal articles (3 of them first-authored), and his work has also been cited 106 times at the time of the petition, showing that his work has been influential.
His proposed endeavor also has broad implications for the United States, as chronic diseases form a substantial burden in the United States, with an average of $37 trillion in direct and indirect costs per year. This means that there is an immediate need for disease management strategies, such as personalized, real-time health monitoring advancements to improve patient quality of life and reduce associated economic burdens. Our client’s research provides a great contribution to advancing healthcare capabilities and promoting growth in the healthcare technologies industry in the United States.
Our client has experience in developing advanced engineering materials, biotechnologies, advanced computing, and semiconductors and microelectronics, which are formally recognized as critical and emerging technologies in a report from the National Science and Technology Council, which the USCIS has acknowledged to be important fields of research.
Lastly, our client has also received letters of recommendation from 2 different experts, with one saying:

“[Client] is an esteemed individual in the field of semiconductor biomedical engineering whose contributions pave the way for the advancement of engineered materials in industries. Consequently, his continued work is invaluable to the American scientific community as well as to the country’s energy independence and public health.”

To conclude, after the work done by our committed team, alongside the USCIS’s premium processing service, we managed to get approval in just 2 days. We thank our client for having faith in our team and wish him the best.
