dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Civic Engagement
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 of the United States. The petitioner did not provide a statement explaining his intended activities or how they would benefit the U.S., and the submitted witness letters were too general to demonstrate that the petitioner's contributions would be substantially greater than those of a qualified U.S. worker.
