Case Summary:

A senior algorithm programmer hired North America Immigration Law Group to file her National Interest Waiver (NIW) petition. Our client has a Ph.D. in signal and information processing. Her skills, experience, competence, and documented list of accomplishments make her an ideal candidate for the EB-2 NIW petition. One of our primary responsibilities is to persuade USCIS that our client’s presented credentials are sufficient to grant her the national interest waiver. We also went through her merits and accomplishments and deduced that her research is nationally important and focuses on integrating advanced acoustic structure design with innovative algorithms that achieve sophisticated manipulation of acoustic fields and enhance the transmission and reception of acoustic signals to enable the development of next-generation acoustic devices. Thus, her research focuses on achieving noise control, acoustic cloaking, intelligent acoustic sensing, and other objectives by controlling the propagation of sound.

In addition, we included the following details in her NIW petition packet, highlighting the great importance of her research as it addresses the issue of acoustic.

• We detailed her proposed endeavor, having broad implications for the United States. Her research is responsible for developing novel acoustic structures and algorithms that enhance the transmission and reception of acoustic signals underwater. Through achieving sophisticated manipulation of acoustic fields, her advancements improve the accuracy, range, and reliability of underwater communications and sensing systems.
• We documented that her publications assembled 130 citations, proving that her citation record distinguishes her as a researcher of great worth to her area of study and the scientific community more broadly, and her publications included 8 peer-reviewed journal articles (4 of them first-authored), 2 first-authored conference abstracts, 1 first-authored preprint, and 2 first-authored publish patent applications, published in 4 highly ranked peer-reviewed journals.
• Due to her knowledge and expertise in acoustic structure design and sound signal processing, she has been invited to conduct a peer review for an authoritative journal in the field and completed 1 review to date, emphasizing that she is seen as very knowledgeable in the field.
• Furthermore, her research has been supported with funding from the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC). This funding supports projects that promote socioeconomic development. Therefore, her research advances critical stealth technology for military submarines and naval vessels.

We are thrilled to share that our client achieved her National Interest Waiver (NIW) approval a mere five days after we submitted her application. Our dedicated team effectively demonstrated her exceptional track record in research that aligns with and advances U.S. interests. We understand that receiving a Request for Evidence (RFE) can be daunting, as the complexities of the notice can be overwhelming. However, thanks to our team’s extensive experience, our client navigated the process without receiving any RFE. We established that her contributions are so valuable that they would benefit the United States even if other qualified U.S. workers were available. With her unique expertise, she is set to make even more significant impacts in the research community. We extend our heartfelt congratulations to her on this remarkable achievement and thank her for choosing our law firm to work with.
