On March 24^th, 2020, we received another NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval for a Postdoctoral Research Scientist in the Field of Immunology (Approval Notice).

General Field: Immunology

Country of Origin: Spain

State of Residence at the Time of Filing: New York

Approval Notice Date: March 24^th, 2020

Processing Time: 5 months, 29 days

Case Summary:

The USCIS spent 5 months and 29 days reviewing our client’s EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition before granting his approval. Our client, a postdoctoral research scientist from Spain, hired North America Immigration Law Group (WeGreened.com) because he knew that we would do everything we could to present a strong case to the USCIS on his behalf. As is apparent by the approval notice, we lived up to his expectations.

Persuasive Presentation:

With a Ph.D. in Biomedicine and extensive experience in the field of immunology, our client had suitable qualifications to qualify for the national interest waiver. Furthermore, his professional qualifications strengthened the likelihood of him getting the petition approved. Here are some of the things we detailed in his EB-2 NIW petition packet: his peer review experience, his citation count (208 citations at the time of filing), and his publication record (16 peer-reviewed journal articles (6 of them first or co-first-authored). We also noted the importance of his research on immune populations in autoimmune diseases. His research in this area is of great importance because it improves the understanding of and ability to treat a number of autoimmune diseases.

Strong Support:

Our client’s high standing in the field secured him numerous supporters, many of whom are his peers. We urged him to reach out to these experts in the field and request for several recommendation letters. Four experts agreed to endorse the approval of his EB-2 NIW petition by signing testimonials. Here is what one of these experts had to say about our client and his work: “Antigen-specific immunotherapy has long been understood as a viable option for preventing and reversing this heretofore incurable disease. Thus, in making significant new findings regarding this form of type 1 diabetes therapy, [client] is performing a worthy service for American citizens, present and future, who suffer from this disease.”

Obtaining Petition Approval:

This EB-2 NIW petition approval serves as another example of our law firm’s dedication to helping every client get closer to a green card. We thank our client for trusting us and choosing our law firm for his NIW application. We wish him the best as he continues to advance the field of immunology with his extensive research.
