dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Bioorganic Chemistry
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the third prong of the national interest waiver test. While the petitioner's work was found to be of substantial intrinsic merit and national in scope, the AAO concluded that the petitioner had not established that they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications, nor did they demonstrate a past history of achievement with sufficient influence on the field.
