dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Agricultural Science
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a researcher in agricultural science, failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. While the director acknowledged the petitioner's qualifications as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, the petitioner did not sufficiently demonstrate that he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker, a key requirement for the national interest waiver.
