Case Summary:

A statistical programmer in the field of bioinformatics from China came to North America Immigration Law Group seeking help with her NIW or National Interest Waiver petition. Her proposed endeavor was to develop pipelines for the detection of novel variants and genetic mutations associated with dementia. She wanted to identify new targets for the development of drugs that prevent, postpone, or treat this disease. It was certain that her proposed endeavor is of great importance because it addresses one of the world’s most prevalent diseases. Along with this, our team set out to collect data relevant to her case and found the following from her CVs, transcripts, certificates, etc.:

- Due to its evident national importance, her research has in fact been supported with funding from the National Institutes of Health.
- Her research has resulted in 8 peer-reviewed journal articles.
- Her publications have been cited a total of 92 times according to Google Scholar.
- She has pursued research directly related to her proposed endeavor of developing pipelines for detecting variants and genetic mutation for 4 years.
- She is also uniquely well-positioned to pursue this work considering the breadth of her 12 years of experience as well as her leadership and expertise in the field.

These facts helped establish that it is beneficial to the United States to waive the requirements of a job offer and labor certification for her. Our team also used 2 letters of recommendation from experts and got her NIW approval in less than 5 months, having proved that her work is essential for the United States of America. We are proud of having had the opportunity to work with her and we wish her all the very best in every future endeavor.
