Success Stories: Our Team of Experts Secured NIW Approval for a Research Scientist Researching the Field of Aerospace Engineering in Just a Week

Client’s Testimonial:

“My experience with the North America Immigration Law Group was very positive and satisfactory. The attorneys not only answered all my many questions timely, but they managed to explain complex bureaucratic situations in a simple and understandable way. They properly guided me through the whole process and, of course, their expertise was obvious when I compared the way they wrote my NIW application and what I would have likely written myself: their work resulted in the positive adjudication of my case within 7 days from filing it. I will gladly retain the Group for my I-485 application.”

Case Summary:

Our client, a member of the professions with an advanced degree, as demonstrated by the documentary evidence and corroborating testimony we attached to his NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition. We noted his proposed research work is on developing and utilizing innovative techniques based on systems engineering, modeling, and analysis for the design of large-scale, long-term aerospace mission architectures to optimize the performance and cost of complex aerospace missions.

As soon as our client, a research scientist, hired the North America Immigration Law Group seeking assistance in obtaining NIW approval, we got to work reviewing his qualifications and identifying the best material to include in his petition, which helped him win his NIW approval without any hardships.

In order to support the intended initiative, our client is deemed qualified based on a number of factors, including his professional experience, educational background, track record of publication and citation, and successful research history in the field. Thus, in our personalized petition packet, we included the following and focused on the same guidelines:

Our client received a Ph.D. in aeronautics & astronautics, proving that he is a well-qualified member of the professions holding an advanced degree.
As an expert in the field of aerospace engineering, his research is of great importance because it advances global aerospace capabilities and economic efficiency.
Throughout his time working in the field, he has built an impressive record of success:

He published 3 peer-reviewed journal articles (2 of them first-authored), 32 peer-reviewed conference articles (18 of them first-authored), 4 book chapters (2 of them first-authored), and 1 book in authoritative peer-reviewed journals and conferences in the field of aerospace engineering, reflecting his peers’ recognition of the value of this research.

Not only has he successfully completed and published the results of his research in the field, but his research has also gone on to influence his peers. That is, his publications have been cited a total of 458 times, thereby demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field of aerospace engineering.

Due to his knowledge and expertise in space systems, space automation, and space robotics, he has been regularly invited to conduct peer review for authoritative journals and conference in the field, and he has completed at least 20 reviews to date, corroborating that he is seen as very knowledgeable in the field.

The aforementioned data demonstrated that our client’s study benefits the United States by dismissing the need for a labor certification and a job offer. As a result, he has demonstrated his eligibility for and otherwise affirms a national interest waiver. His case was filed, and his petition was approved in just 7days. These pieces of evidence thus helped us to exhibit that his research is relevant to optimizing the design of large aerospace missions and enhancing space technology. We are glad that our client chose our law firm to present his I-140 petition, and we sincerely wish him the best in future endeavors.
