LATEST WIN FOR MY CLIENT!

 

Congratulations to My Client: a Successful EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) Brief

 

Some minutes ago, I shared this life-changing news with my client — an experienced healthcare administrator and consultant — and she was super excited to hear that her EB-2 (NIW) petition was approved by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). The Notice of Action was delivered today, March 27, 2023.

 

This case, which I filed on March 14, 2023, was expedited using the premium processing option (USCIS charges a separate fee to adjudicate a case within 45 days).

 

EB-2 (NIW) is an employment-based second preference (EB-2) - National Interest Waiver (NIW) petition, and it is one of the statutorily approved ways for qualified foreigners to become permanent residents in the U.S., and, subsequently, become U.S. citizens.

 

To support this brief, I submitted 65 exhibits.

 

My client, whose highest level of education at the time of filing was a Master of Business Administration, gained her experience in Nigeria, working in both private and public sectors. My client, who previously obtained her Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (M.B.B.S.) from Nigeria, is at the intersections of clinical practice and healthcare administration. She understands the critical importance of managing different professionals from different backgrounds in the healthcare industry. As a matter of law, there are different routes for physicians and physician-administrators. Being a physician, by itself, will likely not survive the analytical framework of the Matter of Dhanasar.

 

At the time of filing, the client had ZERO citation/peer-reviewed article, but my brief centered around her endeavor, which is at the interface of science and healthcare administration, arguing that “substantial merit” and “national importance” should be viewed through the lens of public health impact, which is of national importance in the United States.

 

Documenting her academic and professional achievements, among other things, and connecting that to the national interest of the United States: cost-effectiveness, service effectiveness, accessibility of care, and the quality of life of senior citizens in the United States. My brief focused on how her proposed endeavor — developing a scalable healthcare framework for the adoption and expansion of telemedicine to reduce cost, enhance healthcare access and quality for senior citizens — will contribute positively to the societal welfare of the United States.

 

As a matter of fact, there was no RFE request, for the first legal brief survived all the three elements of the Matter of Dhanasar, 26 I&N Dec. 884 (AAO 2016). Among other cases and relevant sections of Immigration and Nationality Act cited, to support the brief, I emphasized the key standard of review in the Matter of Chawathe, 25 I& N Dec. 369, 375-76 (AAO 2010).

 

My client, a Doctor of Business Administration candidate, can now focus on using applied quantitative research to study the effectiveness of telemedicine in healthcare service delivery.

 

This is a big win for my client and her family members (derivative beneficiaries): that is the American dream.

 

Again, congratulations to my client!

 

The firm is now accepting new clients in the areas of EB-2 (NIW) and EB-1A.
