Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest of the United States. Although the director found he qualified for the underlying EB-2 classification as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, the petitioner did not meet the three-prong test for a national interest waiver as set forth in Matter of Dhanasar.
