dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Complexity Leadership
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the three-prong test for a national interest waiver. While the AAO determined that the petitioner's proposed work in complexity leadership research was of substantial intrinsic merit, it was ultimately found that he did not establish that the proposed benefit would be national in scope or that he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications.
