dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Education
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that she would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications. The evidence, consisting primarily of local certificates of appreciation and a trophy for library contributions, was found insufficient to demonstrate achievements or a record of influence significantly above that of a standard teacher, which is required for a national interest waiver.
