Case Summary:

A research assistant based in Indiana engaged the services of the North America Immigration Law Group to file an NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition. Our dedicated team thoroughly analyzed the client’s experience and expertise upon his retention to develop a compelling petition.

Through our strong commitment and hard work, we gathered detailed information about our client’s proposed endeavor, which is to develop state-of-the-art computational models for materials science and chemical engineering to support applications such as material discovery, protein quantification, wastewater treatment, desalination, resource exploration, and energy storage.

We presented a strong case that incorporated compelling information. This included details on our client’s 8 peer-reviewed journal articles (3 of them first-authored), 1 conference abstract, and the 321 citations his work has received. We also highlighted that these papers were published in authoritative, peer-reviewed journals, underscoring their credibility and impact, and that he has conducted at least 6 reviews to date.

With an M.Sc. in chemical engineering and substantial experience in computational engineering, our client is an exceptional candidate for the National Interest Waiver. His research advancing his proposed endeavor is of great importance because it directly addresses critical challenges in industries such as water management and renewable energy development. Furthermore, his work extends to membrane-based separation techniques for extracting and purifying valuable metals like lithium and rare earth elements, which are pivotal components in batteries for renewable energy storage systems.

Additionally, we included 3 recommendation letters from esteemed experts in the field. These letters strongly supported the approval of our client’s NIW petition, reaffirming the significance of his contributions to the United States. According to one of these recommenders:

“Through [client’s] innovative approaches, he has substantially helped improve the
treatment of oily wastewater in the U.S…By developing a series of efficient and cost-effective membrane techniques for oily wastewater treatment, [client] has helped protect the environmental and public health of the U.S. In addressing these challenges, [client] has shown the originality and value of his computational engineering research, as well as the value his continued work offers to the field.”

Therefore, our client’s research significantly contributes to public well-being and the sustainability of resources by enhancing critical separation processes and promoting sustainable technologies.

With our assistance and the premium processing service, his NIW petition was approved in 2 months, 5 days only. We celebrate this achievement with our client and express our appreciation for entrusting us with this important journey. We wish him all the best and look forward to his continued success in future endeavors.
