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.
