dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Education
Decision Summary
The motion to reopen was dismissed primarily because it was filed untimely, 35 days after the decision was issued, which is beyond the 33-day limit. The AAO also noted that even if the motion were considered on its merits, the petitioner failed to establish that the benefits of her work as a pre-kindergarten teacher were national in scope or that she would benefit the national interest to a greater extent than a qualified U.S. worker.
