Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for a National Interest Waiver. The AAO found that while the petitioner's proposed work has intrinsic merit, the benefits of a single soldier maintaining military equipment are too attenuated to be considered national in scope. The petitioner also failed to demonstrate that they would benefit the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker.
