Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the second and third prongs of the National Interest Waiver test. While the director acknowledged the petitioner's proposed work had substantial intrinsic merit, the petitioner did not prove that the benefits would be national in scope or that he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a qualified U.S. worker. The evidence submitted was generic and did not demonstrate a past record of achievement or influence in his field.
