dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Civil And Environmental Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the third prong of the national interest waiver test. While the AAO concurred that the petitioner's work in civil and environmental engineering is of substantial intrinsic merit and national in scope, the petitioner did not prove that she would benefit the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker.
