Case Summary:

An esteemed researcher in the field of Biotechnology had approached the North America Immigration Law Group seeking assistance in filing a National Interest Waiver (NIW) petition on his behalf. Our experienced team analyzed his background, found his many scientific contributions, and agreed to take his case as his history made him someone who would be highly desirable in the eyes of the USCIS. His personalized petition package contained these details:

He has a Ph.D. in biotechnology, proving he has an advanced degree.
He has a respectable publishing record, with 39 peer-reviewed journal articles (8 of them first-authored) and 3 book chapters, in addition, no less than 13 of his papers have been published in highly-ranked journals.
His work has received a staggering 2165 citations at the time of filing, with at least a whopping 28 of his papers among the most cited within their field and year of publication.
His proposed endeavor is also of national importance, as his development and application of plant biotechnological interventions promote advancements in the biotechnology and plant-based biologics industries, which are both key drivers in the U.S. economy. Our client’s continued biotechnology research into plant bioactive compounds and biocontrol agents supports further upward trajectories in these industries, increasing U.S. competitiveness and economic prosperity. This is particularly true given the increasing demand for plant-based products and the desire for sustainable and eco-friendly products. Not to mention, he had also received funding from the Higher Education Commission of Pakistan, showing that his research was important enough to have the support of a governmental body.
He has also received letters of recommendation from 4 different experts, 1 of whom said:

“[Client]’s impressive record of success in the field is rooted in his exceptional background. He boasts a solid foundation in biotechnology, having earned a bachelor’s degree, a master’s degree, and a doctoral degree in the subject. [Client]’s manuscripts have passed through this intensive procedure on numerous occasions and for some of the most prestigious journals in the field, and that [Client]’s research has been featured in these exceptional titles so many times is a testament to the quality of his work and his ability to consistently identify and produce the research most needed by the field.”

With the information above, our team managed to gain approval for his petition in just 5 days, aided by the support of the USCIS’s premium processing service. We are thankful for our client’s faith in our firm and we hope for his continued success.
