Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to first establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as an individual of exceptional ability. The AAO determined that the petitioner did not satisfy at least three of the required criteria, specifically finding inconsistencies and insufficient proof for the 'ten years of full-time experience' criterion. Since the petitioner did not qualify for the base classification, he was consequently ineligible for the National Interest Waiver.
