Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed for procedural and substantive reasons. Primarily, the petitioner failed to submit the required Form ETA-750B and therefore did not properly apply for the national interest waiver. Substantively, while the petitioner's work as a chiropractor was found to have intrinsic merit, the evidence did not establish that he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a qualified U.S. worker, as having special skills does not inherently meet the NIW threshold.
