dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Bilingual Education
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the third prong of the national interest waiver test. The AAO determined that while the petitioner's work as a bilingual French educator was in an area of substantial intrinsic merit and national in scope, she did not demonstrate that her past achievements had an influence on the field as a whole. The evidence was insufficient to show that she would benefit the national interest to a greater extent than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications.
