dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Author And Lecturer
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the third prong of the national interest waiver test. Although the petitioner's work as an author and lecturer was found to have substantial intrinsic merit and be national in scope, he did not establish that he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a U.S. worker. The submitted evidence failed to demonstrate that his books, lectures, and training sessions had influenced his field as a whole to a degree sufficient to waive the job offer requirement.
