Success Stories: NIW Petition Approved in Less Than 2 Months for Iranian Scientist in the Field of Chemical Engineering

Client’s Testimonial:

“WOW, that is a very exciting news! […] Thank you so very much for your help. For sure, I will share my wonderful experience with my friends and family.”

On April 18^th, 2016, we received another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval for a Scientist in the Field of Chemical Engineering (Approval Notice).

General Field: Chemical Engineering

Position at the Time of Case Filing: Scientist

Country of Origin: Iran

Service Center: Texas Service Center (TSC)

Approval Notice Date: April 18^th, 2016

Processing Time: 1 month, 26 days

Case Summary:

Our client, who has a PhD in Chemical Engineering, was born in Iran and hired North America Immigration Law Group (WeGreened.com) to compile and submit a persuasive EB-2 NIW petition on his behalf. As promised, we worked diligently to make it happen. Texas Service Center only spent 1 month and 26 days adjudicating our client’s EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition. We have no doubt that our meticulous presentation of our client’s solid credentials lent a hand in the rapid adjudication.

Our client’s comprehensive EB-2 NIW petition dossier contained a wealth of information on his copious achievements. His dossier was partly composed of his publication record, citation count, and peer review record. When we filed the case, these figures stood at half a dozen publications, 32 citations, and 31 peer reviews. Using these numbers, we demonstrated that our client is one of the most progressive individuals working in the field of chemical engineering and that other researchers heavily depend on his work to advance their own research.

We also reviewed our client’s investigations on improving processes in gas refineries, reducing energy and fresh materials waste, and characterizing unconventional oil and gas reservoirs. We summarized that his findings benefit the United States’ energy independence, resource conservation, and environmental health, as well as to its stronghold in the oil and gas markets. We supported our claims by including recommendation letters that confirmed the significance of our client’s continued presence in the United States. These letters were furnished by other influential researchers in the field. Here are a several excerpts:

“There is no doubt in my mind that [Client] will continue to enjoy this success into the future and that he will continue to impact our field as he continues his work here in the United States.”

“I consider his work among the best in several of our shared research areas, and I have no reservations about making this apparent to our peers in the field. In this way, I have singled out [Client] as an unparalleled researcher who is completing work of immense significance in chemical engineering, greatly surpassing his fellow scientists in the field.”

“[Client’s] research is geared towards providing exactly this sort of value for energy production companies, and he has spent his entire career devising new methods by which companies can meet the world’s energy needs and maintain an environmentally conscious and efficient operations.”

In conclusion, we would like to congratulate our client for obtaining an EB-2 NIW petition approval, and we wish him well as he continues to progress the field of chemical engineering.
