Case Summary:

Another exceptional client that Chen Immigration Law Associates had the pleasure of working with was a PhD candidate from Iran working in the field of design computing. Her work had focused specifically on creating computational models to assist in the information flow automation and management of various stages of construction projects. This client wished to seek continued employment in the field of design computing. We at Chen Immigration Law Associates demonstrated that her continued employment in the field would not only benefit those in her field, but the citizens of the United States at large. To achieve success in this case, we submitted extensive documentation proving our client’s highly significant contributions to the field of design computing, including at least 9 peer-reviewed journal articles and conference papers. These publications had been cited at least 34 times at the time of case filing. Of her accomplishments, one of the recommenders remarked: “The application of her unique skillset has revolutionized multiple industries like construction, engineering, architecture, and even facilities management. In fact, her area of expertise is fundamental if we are to improve the building construction industry with state-of-the-art technology in the United States of America. Strikingly, it is only the beginning of [client’s] career, yet to lose her expertise would be a major impediment to our progress and advancement of computational design. The truth of this statement lies in the fact that her innovative methods have already been applied by numerous leading industrial organizations…” Through extensive documentation, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates successfully argued that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. Her NIW application was approved in just 6 weeks.
