dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Chemistry
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. The AAO noted that while the petitioner qualifies for the underlying classification, his past record, including only two published articles out of seven listed items, did not justify projections of future benefit to the national interest to the degree required for the waiver.
