dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Civil Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a qualified U.S. worker. While the petitioner's work in civil engineering was found to have intrinsic merit and be national in scope, the petitioner did not demonstrate a past history of achievement with a degree of influence on the field as a whole sufficient to justify waiving the labor certification process.
