Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary's work would be national in scope. The evidence, including the description of duties and supporting affidavits, described local, project-by-project work and did not demonstrate that the beneficiary's contributions would impact the field to a substantially greater degree than a qualified U.S. worker.
