dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Architecture
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. Although the AAO concluded the petitioner qualified as an advanced degree professional, it found he did not demonstrate that he would benefit the national interest to a substantially greater extent than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications.
Criteria Discussed
