dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Agricultural Economics
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications. The AAO found that the evidence, which included citations and two emails requesting peer review, was not sufficient to demonstrate that the petitioner's past record justified projections of future benefit to the national interest.
