Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to contest the Director's finding that they did not establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 visa classification. Since establishing this eligibility is a prerequisite for a national interest waiver, and the petitioner did not address this issue on appeal, the AAO considered the issue waived and dismissed the case without reviewing the national interest waiver arguments.
