dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Cytogenetics
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because while the petitioner's work in cytogenetics was acknowledged to be in an area of intrinsic merit and national in scope, she failed to meet the third prong of the national interest waiver test. The petitioner did not sufficiently demonstrate that her past achievements had a significant influence on the field as a whole or that she would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications.
