dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Biology
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest. The director found that while the petitioner qualified as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, the submitted evidence, primarily witness letters, did not demonstrate a past record of achievements that would justify projections of future benefit to the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker.
