dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Education
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. The director found that while the petitioner, a mathematics teacher, qualified as a professional with an advanced degree equivalent, the evidence submitted did not demonstrate an impact beyond her immediate employers. The awards and letters of recommendation were deemed to show a high level of professional competence but did not establish that she would benefit the national interest to a substantially greater degree than other qualified U.S. workers.
