(5) Have the courage to self-recommend, and have one to say

After Chapter 2, Substantial Merit and National Importance, I take the reader into another deep water—Chapter 3, I am Well-positioned to Advance the Proposed Endeavor.

Section 3.1 Background and Achievements is a quick review of academic qualifications, if you have won an award or won a scholarship such as a book award for your outstanding grades, you can specifically mention it to prove your excellence, and you can also provide a short description to let the reviewer know that the award is not easy to come by. I provided the email notification of the Lo Ka Lun Memorial Scholarship and the school briefing as evidence, so I don't have to worry about being questioned for lying. Professor Luo also does not have to dig through the account books to confirm that the author is the winner. One of these passages is quoted below.

Section 3.1 Background and Achievements

During my academic journey, I was honored to receive the prestigious Chia-Lun Lo Fellowship in January 2019 (Exhibit A6). This highly competitive fellowship exemplifies the university's commitment to recognizing academic excellence and supporting outstanding international students. Being one of the seven recipients out of a large applicant pool, the Chia-Lun Lo Fellowship provided both financial support and validation of my academic achievements and dedication to excellence. This recognition further fueled my drive to contribute significantly to my field.

Section 3.2 Qualifications and Certificates The author lists the certificates obtained through training. I think you have some experience in STEM fields. AutoCAD for mechanical engineering, Azure and SQL for data science, can all be put in to increase the strength of the application file. One of these passages is quoted below.

Same year, I successfully completed the TR3029 Training by Beckhoff Automation. This comprehensive training program covers various aspects of system architecture, programming, configuration, diagnostics, and troubleshooting using Beckhoff technologies, a Windows-based platform. Through hands-on exercises and real-world scenarios, I acquired practical skills and in-depth knowledge in designing and maintaining Beckhoff automation systems.  
Section 3.3 Exceptional Contributions examines the main contributions to your work, and you can see why in the previous article I recommended that you organize your resume first, not only to help you screen out potential referees, but also to make you more organized when describing your contributions. In the cover letter, the author listed a total of five projects that he participated in/led in the workplace. I believe that readers can sort out at least three items to make arguments.

It is important to note that you can add some descriptions to the points you list to echo the slogan shouted in Section 2.2 Proposed Endeavor, so that the whole cover letter will be coherent and logical. The following quote is just as follows the previous article mentioned in 1. Process Automation and Manufacturing Reimagination; Ideally, you can echo the executive order of the President of the United States or a bill passed by Congress recently.

And the portfolio that many people have asked about before is used here to lay out your statement and improve your persuasiveness. The following is for your reference.

3. Integration of Emerging Technology — Laser Thickness Measuring and Monitoring System

Amidst my journey at Inteplast Group, I embarked on another momentous project: the development of a Laser Thickness Measuring and Monitoring System. Driven by my determination to leverage cutting-edge technology and enhance our existing production equipment, I embraced this challenge. After careful evaluation, I identified the Allen-Bradley 5069-SERIAL input/output module as the optimal solution. However, I encountered a hurdle along the way: the module lacked a comprehensive official application guide. Undeterred, I delved into extensive research and launched a development journey to unravel the ideal configuration for seamless communication with our laser displacement sensors.

As I immersed myself in understanding the module's intricacies, I recognized the significance of sharing my findings with the wider engineering community. It resonates with the principles emphasized in the PCAST report (Exhibit B3) that fostering open-source collaboration environments for the creation of large and complex systems can empower the domestic manufacturing industry by democratizing the design innovation process and harnessing the expertise of a diverse talent pool. In line with this philosophy and to contribute to the democratization of knowledge, I took the initiative to author an Application Note (Exhibit A24), offering comprehensive insights into the configuration process.

Furthermore, I created an instructional video that meticulously outlines the precise steps for utilizing the 5069-SERIAL module. This commitment to knowledge dissemination has struck a chord with the engineering community, evident from the remarkable success of the video, garnering over 1,900 views and continuing to gain traction. Witnessing the wide-reaching impact of the knowledge I have shared is truly gratifying. Through this project, I not only exemplified my dedication to engineering community engagement but also showcased my fervent passion for integrating revolutionary engineering solutions. 
The penultimate subsection, Section 3.4 Evidence of Influence, if your portfolio is cited, or your paper is cited, you can show that you have a say and have not inflated your influence. Then remember to make a strong link to the official documents.

My commitment aligns with President Biden’s objective of guaranteeing that the fruit of science and technology are fully shared across America and among all Americans, ultimately benefiting society by providing resilient and efficient manufacturing. For comprehensive information of the President’s objective, kindly consult A Letter to Dr. Eric S. Lander, the President’s Science Advisor and Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy (Exhibit B7) .

The last section, Section 3.5 Summary, is to help the reviewer do a key organization within a short page (you can also think of it as TL; DR.)。 The author allocates the last paragraph according to the ratio of Section 3.1, Section 3.2, Section 3.3 and Section 3.4 to the last paragraph.

If you follow the steps step by step, you will complete the two most difficult chapters of the cover letter here.

(6) PERM and LC, which can be
discarded

Chapter 4 It Would be Beneficial to Waive the Labor Certification The starting style is similar to everyone, and the author directly quotes it below as a reader benefit.

I firmly believe that a labor certification, which primarily focuses on minimum requirements, fails to adequately capture the extent of my achievements and the value I bring to the manufacturing sector. Allow me to present my case based on the following points:
For the rest of the part, since the conditions of each applicant are different, only the more general parts are quoted here. The following excerpt of the argument is from the O*NET OnLine mentioned in the previous article, and uses its data to support my description of the dilemma of job shortage, and the prospect of future growth that is greater than the STEM average.

Additionally, it is important to note the projected growth rate of 21.1% from 2021 to 2031 in this field, which is nearly twice the rate of the broader STEM sector (10.8%) as indicated in the BLS Employment Projection 2021-2031 (Exhibit B10 and B11). These statistics highlight not only the personal benefits of waiving the labor certification requirement but also the invaluable contribution I make and the value of my engineering expertise to the national interest.

(7) One identity, and then a residence

If you are clean from start to finish and have not been present illegally or have committed any illegal acts, Chapter 5 of Petitioner's Nonimmigrant Status should be fairly straightforward. The author briefly explained that I originally entered the country on an F-1 visa, and later applied for OPT and STEM OPT in order to work in the United States and gain practical experience, as well as when the EAD expired and when I changed to B-2 status. In this way, the chapter can be concluded.

If you don't know the difference between VISA and Status, you can read this [UMAA] Application for Change of Student Status F-1 to Tourist Status B-2 to learn more.

Finally, when it comes to identity and residence, there is probably nothing more classic than this paragraph. After the readers are relaxed, the author will take you to study how to apply for a green card.

(8) Difficult to achieve, finish the work

If you cross the river by feeling the stones of the author's foundation, you can already write the conclusion of the last chapter of the cover letter here. If you're not good at writing abstracts and summaries, that's fine. Aside from fantasy, one of the things that AI does best is summarizing. The following author will take you to role-play with artificial intelligence and rewrite your cover letter in the writing style of a lawyer.

(9) Adjust ChatGPT, an AI lawyer

When playing role-playing with ChatGPT, the following settings were given.

  • Born and raised in the New England area
  • Have a Bachelor's degree in Controls Engineering from the University of Michigan
  • Accumulated Five years of work experience as Controls Engineer at Emerson
  • Possess a Juris Doctor degree from the University of Michigan 
  • Specialize in immigration law with 20 years of experience

Because someone has done experiments before to compare the difference between role-playing and non-role-playing dialogue, the author has not tested whether such a setting has any effect on the answers given.

After setting it, the author will throw the first draft to the AI lawyer to rewrite the draft, and ask it to be rewritten in the style of Legal Writing, and the professionalism of the writing is out of reach for me, who is a third language in English, so I recommend you to give it a try.

However, it should be noted that artificial intelligence will have illusions, and applicants must carefully check the content word by word, so as not to make a big mistake like the lawyer case in the video below.

If necessary, make an appointment with a real lawyer for consultation, so as not to save a small amount of money and lose time and a lot of money.

The author also has the following articles, please advise.
