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 director found the petitioner qualified as an alien of exceptional ability, the petitioner did not demonstrate that their past record justified projections of future benefit or that they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker.
