Case Summary:

In October of 2023, a Chinese machine learning AI developer contacted us to ask for our assistance in filing an NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition on his behalf. Our client holds a Ph.D. in higher education, and he convincingly demonstrated that he seeks employment in an area of substantial intrinsic merit to the U.S. that will be national in scope. Since an NIW applicant or beneficiary must have an “advanced degree” or “exceptional ability” in the sciences, we observed that our client held this qualification. Therefore, we were able to verify that our client, a machine learning expert, plans to continue his research into creating cutting-edge machine learning models to help people succeed in a variety of learning contexts in order to support individualized learning, test preparation, and career advancement. We concluded that his findings appeared relevant to the U.S. education system and economy, as well as to employment and educational results.

Following a careful evaluation of our client’s qualifications, we consented to countersign the client-attorney agreement. We aimed at emphasizing the great importance of his research which enhances educational and employment outcomes. We incorporated the following details in our customized petition package:

It was noteworthy for us to mention that his use of machine learning is especially pertinent as it can extract valuable information from large datasets to improve operational efficiencies, identify opportunities, and mitigate unknown risks. Furthermore, the economic benefit of his research is substantial.
Besides, his research has resulted in 5 peer-reviewed journal articles (2 of them firstauthored) and 10 peer-reviewed conference articles (4 of them first-authored), and these papers have been published in at least 4 highly ranked peer-reviewed journals.
Not only did he complete and publish the results of his research in the field, but his research has also influenced his fellow researchers. Thus, his work has been cited a total of 167 times, proving that he has had a major influence on other scholars’ understanding of topics such as developing strategies to enhance student achievement and assisting individuals to adopt effective learning habits for improved educational outcomes.
Due to his great knowledge and expertise in AI in education, intelligent tutoring systems,and recommender systems, he has been regularly invited to conduct peer reviews for authoritative journals and conferences in the field, and he has completed at least 9 peer reviews to date.

The aforementioned data confirms that our client is regarded as highly knowledgeable in his field of expertise and as an authority on subjects pertaining to his planned endeavor. We are grateful to our client for choosing the North America Immigration Law Group to successfully support him in his EB-2 NIW application before the USCIS. We are super happy that our client secured his NIW approval just 3 days after we submitted his case. Thus, we hope he succeeds as he advances in his area of specialization.
