dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Aids Research
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a past record of achievement that would justify projections of future benefit to the national interest. The evidence submitted was found to be insufficient, as most of the publications cited did not contain the petitioner's name, and the petitioner's prior work was not clearly linked to the proposed research. The petitioner's subjective assurance of future contributions was deemed speculative without a demonstrated record of success.
