Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, while qualifying for the underlying EB-2 classification as an advanced degree professional, failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest. Specifically, the AAO concurred with the Director that the petitioner did not sufficiently demonstrate the 'national importance' of his proposed endeavor in real estate investment and construction management consulting, a key requirement under the first prong of the Dhanasar framework.
