dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Cancer Research
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. Specifically, the petitioner did not demonstrate that he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications, as the evidence of his past achievements, including publication citations, was not sufficient to show contributions significantly outweighing his peers.
