Dr. David
David came from a small Indian town. He obtained his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering in the summer of 2005. His primary research focused on Nanotechnology. Currently, he is conducting postdoctoral research as a research institution in US.
David retained Zhang & Associates, P.C. for his NIW petition. Our legal team carefully organized his petition materials. In his petition preparation, our attorneys noticed that he had 3 first-authored articles and a couple of co-authored articles. Thus, we highlighted his academic activities, such as paper presentations at several academic conferences. We also demonstrated to the immigration officer the significance of his research work by arguing that nanotechnology represents the future of scientific research on materials and its success would ensure the national competitive advantage in highly advanced technologies.
David was very satisfied with our premium legal service because his petition was approved very quickly. His petition was submitted in January and approved in March, about two months.
Dr. Henry
Henry obtained his Ph.D. from an institution of higher education in the Middle East. He is currently working for a prestigious American institution as a visiting Scientist/Post-doctoral research fellow. His research efforts include improving the quality of cotton fiber and study the response of plant to high temperature and other environmental stresses.
Henry retained Zhang & Associates, P.C. for his NIW petition. Our attorneys noticed that Henry was an outstanding researcher in his field. He has extensive experience in the fields of agricultural botany, plant biology and genetic engineering. His research resulted in more than 10 articles published in internationally-circulated journals. He received several honors and awards from various countries. He also has been a full member of several prestigious scientific societies. As a result, our legal team decided not to shy from his great achievements, and we also submitted 9 strong recommendation letters, two of which were independent advisory opinions.
With our complete documentation of Dr. Henry’s superb academic achievements and our successful presentation strategy, Henry’s NIW petition was processed so smoothly that he received his approval less than 6 weeks, from last December through this February.
Dr. Andrea
Andrea obtained her masters in Chemistry from a university in Philippines. Then she came to US to purse her Ph.D. in Chemistry in United States. During her Ph.D. studies, she concentrated on synthetic organic, analytical, physical and biological sciences.
Andrea retained Zhang & Associates, P.C. for her NIW petition. In preparation for her petition, our legal team noticed the technical difficulty in obtaining approval in that she had relatively less number of publications than our average NIW clients and also she had a hard time to find many letters of recommendation.
To overcome this weakness, our attorneys argued in the petition that Andrea had multi-disciplinary knowledge and expertise in her fields and her research would greatly advance our nation's efforts to develop new treatments for diseases and illnesses that afflict our citizens, such as the mechanism of neurodegenerative and inflammatory diseases, like Alzheimer's and Atherosclerosis. We emphasized the significance of her research and discovery, which can lead to early diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases and neuro-degenerative diseases. As to her recommendation letters, we decided to submit only 4, few but strong, recommendation letters.
Our unique strategy in her case turned out to be successful. Andrea’s petition was submitted last December, and was approved this February.
Mrs. Wood
Mrs. Wood was from South American country and obtained her master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from a university of his native country.
Mrs. Wood retained Zhang & Associates, P.C. for her NIW petition. Our legal team designed a petition package tailored to her own academic backgrounds and achievements. In our petition, we emphasized that she was an internationally recognized authority in advanced internal combustion engine and emissions control systems and automotive fuels development. We explained her research to immigration officer in a simple way so that the officer would understand her major contribution was to reduce and control emissions and the design and development of alternative innovative fuels. We also emphasized that her current position as an associate director at a research center, which collaborated in various research projects with US government including the Department of Energy and the Department of Defense. Our legal team believed that our presentation would seem very convincing to the immigration officer in terms of proving Mrs. Wood’s work was national in scope and of its substantial intrinsic merit.
Finally, we selectively submitted recommendation letters from a chief scientist with a major Motor company, a leading researcher from a petroleum company, and an assistant director from a leading research institution. By this selection of recommendation letters, we successfully demonstrated to the immigration officers that how widely recognized and applied Mrs. Wood’s research work was to the national interest across the different sectors.
We helped Mrs. Wood submit her NIW petition on last November; and within three months, her petition was approved this February.
Ms. Hao
Ms. Hao came to US to pursue her Doctoral degree in Chemistry in 2000. By the time her NIW petition was submitted, she was a still a young Ph.D. candidate, expecting her degree in months.
Ms. Hao retained Zhang & Associates, P.C. for her NIW petition. In preparing for her case, our legal team noticed her unique strengths: She received a top graduate student award from her university; she had some first-authored and one second-authored article in peer-reviewed and highly esteemed journals, including Journal of Organic Chemistry, Journal of Materials Chemistry. As young as she was, her research work was nothing shy from remarkable. She had been extensively cited from independent scientists in US, Spain, Germany, Italy, China, Denmark, U.K. and etc. Our experienced attorneys also noticed that most of the citing papers were for Ms. Hao's first-authored papers published in 2004 and 2005 so Ms. Hao had generated considerable attention in a very short period of time.
Based on her unique situation, we decided to emphasize her research achievements in a short period of time. We argued that her research in catalysts was widely used in the fields of energy, chemical manufacturing, agriculture and environmental protection and they would have unique application in the pharmaceutical industry. Also we highlighted her cutting-edge research results which had drawn extensive international attention in the related academic community in a very short of period. We submitted seven recommendation letters, among which two were submitted by independent evaluators.
Due to our successful strategy in part, Ms. Hao’s NIW petition was submitted last September and approved this March.
Dr. Zhou
Dr. Zhou obtained her Ph.D. in Polymer Chemistry & Physics from a top institution in China. Now, she is working as a postdoctoral researcher at a university in US.
Dr. Zhou retained Zhang & Associated, P.C. for her NIW petition. Our elite legal team assisted her in every step in the petition process. Our attorneys argued in her petition that she was a well-established researcher in the field of polymer science and nanotechnology with many publications have been cited more than 50 times by researchers from 14 countries.
Since Dr. Zhou obtained her Ph.D. earlier in China, we also presented her impressive early career to the immigration officer. We included her papers cited by some well-established international researchers such as one of the founding scientists in her sub-field. We also demonstrated that her research had not only added to the fundamental understanding of semiconductor quantum dots for the scientific community, but also provided valuable new building blocks for nano-optoelectronics and nano-biotechnology.
Dr. Zhou’s petition was submitted in January and approved less than 6 weeks, in March 3.
