Case Summary:

The typical processing time for an EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition is 4 months. We at Chen Immigration Law Associates are meticulous in our methods for gathering evidence and presenting it in a manner that each criterion is so well supported that the adverse effects associated with an unfavorable ruling are insurmountable. For this reason, we were able to secure approval for this petition in only 98 days, or 59% faster than typical cases.

In this case, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates worked very closely with the client to ensure that the client would have the best evidence to support their application. First, we worked towards proving that this client was seeking employment in an area of substantial intrinsic merit. We highlighted this client’s area of higher education, especially her Ph.D. in Structural and Molecular Biochemistry. In addition to this client’s educational background, we showcased their exceptional research, number of cited works (381), patent, and number of publications (13), many of which have had a substantial impact on the international scientific community.

Secondly, we gathered evidence to support the proposed benefit of this client’s work and its overall national benefits. Dedicating time towards gathering support for the specific contributions this client has made to their field of endeavor, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates worked diligently with the client to secure seven recommendation letters from experts in numerous fields of interest. In order to provide the best possible associated evidence, we drafted these letters that were then reviewed, editing, and signed by each recommender providing significant testimony in reference to the proposed benefits of the client’s ongoing research.

Finally, we proved that the national interest would be adversely affected if a labor certification were required. As this is arguably the most daunting task associated with filing EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petitions, it is important that each case establishes evidence directly corresponding to their claimed criteria. We at Chen Immigration Law Associates worked diligently with the client and utilized our top analytic software to obtain information about the client that had direct relation to the national interest. With this evidence we provided the best possible chance for a swift approval case.
