Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not sufficiently demonstrate eligibility for a national interest waiver under the three-prong framework established in Matter of Dhanasar. While the proposed endeavor was found to have substantial merit and national importance, the petitioner failed to establish that they were well-positioned to advance the endeavor and that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be beneficial to the United States on balance.
