Case Summary:

North America Immigration Law Group (WeGreened.com) was hired by a clinical cardiology fellow to help him file an EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition. Our client, who obtained his M.B.B.S. from his birth country of India, has years of experience investigating the incidence, predictors and outcomes of various cardiac diseases and treatment options, such as congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG).

As with all our clients, we encouraged this cardiology fellow to contact experts in his field for recommendation letters. Our client managed to obtain six letters, which we included in our comprehensive EB-2 NIW petition packet to the USCIS. According to one of the recommenders: “It is quite clear to see that [Client’s] research is given significant weight in our unique field, and therefore he has become an indispensable member of this specialized area of study […] deserves nothing but praise and endorsement, for he has clearly been a key developer of important approaches to early diagnosis and improved care of CAD and other cardiac diseases.” Alongside these letters, we included data on our client’s extensive peer review experience, his 18 journal papers that had accumulated over 500 citations, and detailed summaries of his research projects. We demonstrated that not many cardiologists can accomplish as much as our client has, and that the research he is conducting is of great value to the United States.

We would like to congratulate our client for completing this significant portion of the green card journey, and we wish him the best with his I-485 (the final step towards permanent residency). .
