dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Architecture
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the third prong of the national interest waiver test. While the director and AAO concurred that the beneficiary's work in sustainable architecture is of intrinsic merit and national in scope, the petitioner did not demonstrate that the beneficiary would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications.
Criteria Discussed
