“Thanks for your services in preparing I-140 application materials.”

On March 17^th, 2022, we received another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval for a Graduate Research Assistant in the Field of Electrical Engineering (Approval Notice).

General Field: Electrical Engineering

Position at the Time of Case Filing: Graduate Research Assistant

Country of Origin: Bangladesh

State of Residence at the Time of Filing: Pennsylvania

Approval Notice Date: March 17^th, 2022

Processing Time: 4 months, 7 days

Case Summary:

An expert in the field of electrical engineering from Bangladesh came to North America Immigration Law Group seeking help with his National Interest Waiver (NIW) petition. His proposed endeavor was to continue his research on developing solutions for improving current magnetic memory and sensors. He wanted to facilitate innovative developments in computing, data transmission, and healthcare facilities. Our team had the job to collect evidence in order to prove that his proposed endeavor is of great importance.

Our team of experts made this possible by looking at his CVs, transcripts, certificates, letters of support, etc. This yielded the following information:

His research has resulted in 8 peer-reviewed journal articles (4 of them first-authored) and 4 peer-reviewed conference articles (1 of them first-authored).
His publications have been cited a total of 75 times according to Google Scholar, thereby demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field of electrical engineering.
He has pursued research directly related to his proposed endeavor of developing solutions for improving current magnetic memory and sensors in order to facilitate innovative developments in computing, data transmission, and healthcare facilities for 4 years.
We showed that because his research enables the development of innovative nanoelectronic devices with countless technological applications, it is indeed of great national interest and importance.
He has completed at least 8 reviews to date for several peers in his area of expertise.
He also obtained 4 letters of recommendation from experts who were working in his area of expertise. One of them had the following to say about his work:

“To begin with, [client’s] research on magnetic memory devices is particularly pertinent to U.S. interests. Achieving the country’s computing and electronics goals, including achieving stronger artificial intelligence, developing more applicable internet-of-things technology, and producing real-world quantum computing, all require greater advances in-memory technology. [The client’s] research has responded to this particular challenge in magnetic memory. His work is thus aligned with U.S. efforts to improve the manifold applications enabled by computing and electronics advances.”

So, we could say that his work on improving the power consumption and efficacy of magnetic memory devices has advanced the field and the work of his peers by addressing key challenges in STT-MRAM technology. Consequently, this work represents progress toward his larger goal of advancing current magnetic memory and sensors in order to facilitate innovative developments in computing and data transmission. Considering his record of successful research in an area that significantly furthers U.S. interests, the adjudicating authorities confirmed his NIW status in less than 5 months. We are glad to have had the opportunity to work with such an excellent scholar. We wish him the very best in all future endeavors.
