dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Cardiology
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. The AAO affirmed the director's decision, noting that while the petitioner's work in cardiology has intrinsic merit and national scope, the petitioner failed to demonstrate they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker, as required by the third prong of the NYSDOT test.
Criteria Discussed
