dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Biological Science
Decision Summary
The motion to reopen was granted, but the previous decision to dismiss the appeal was affirmed. While the AAO agreed the petitioner's work in biological science had substantial intrinsic merit and was national in scope, it found the petitioner had not established that he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a qualified U.S. worker. The petitioner did not demonstrate a past history of achievement with sufficient influence on the field as a whole to warrant a national interest waiver.
