dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Aerospace Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the basic eligibility for the underlying visa classification. The petitioner did not demonstrate that he possessed an advanced degree or its equivalent, which is a prerequisite before a national interest waiver can be considered. The petitioner's arguments to lower the degree requirement or approve the petition based on a family relationship were found to be without legal basis.
