Case Summary:

A client from Iran with a Ph.D. in computer science approached us to help her file the I-140 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition; we, therefore, employed our team of experts to build a convincing case for her. We included details from her professional and academic career in her petition packet to support her claim to the NIW category.

We showcased that along with her academic qualifications:

Her research related to fast and efficient computing systems has great substantial merit and national importance.
Her proposed endeavor is to develop codes and tools for profiling artificial intelligence and machine learning models and facilitating pre- and post-processing to advance applications for fast and efficient computing systems.
Furthermore, due to its evident national importance, the client’s research has been supported with funding from the National Science Foundation. This funding is reserved solely for research directed at advancing the national interest, including projects that promote the progress of science, advance national health, prosperity, and welfare, and secure the national defense.

On the other hand, we highlighted that her academic performance has been responsible for several publications, and citations:

Her research has resulted in 4 published peer-reviewed conference papers and 1 accepted peer-reviewed conference paper (all of them first-authored).
Her publications have been cited 22 times according to Google Scholar.
She has also completed at least 1 review to date, confirming that she is seen as very knowledgeable in the field and an expert in topics related to her proposed endeavor.

Also, Experts in the field confirm client’s record of successful research has well-positioned her to continue advancing the proposed endeavor as one out of four stated:

“As demonstrated by her educational and career achievements in computer science, [client’s]research into the design of novel machine learning frameworks stems from experience…All of these experiences have prepared [client] for her current work in the service of computer science research. Furthermore, through her completed research projects, she has provided evidence of her capability to develop toolsets for advancing machine learning modeling and processing for different fields and areas. Altogether, [client] is a leading voice for computer science, and it is in the best interest of the United States to retain her services.”

As the documentary evidence and corroborating testimony from experts in the field establish, our client is a member of the professions holding an advanced degree. She proposes to continue her research on developing codes and tools for profiling artificial intelligence and machine learning models and facilitating pre- and post-processing in order to advance applications for fast and efficient computing systems, which is clearly an endeavor with substantial merit and national importance.

It has been an amazing journey with her. We wish her the very best in her future endeavors.
