dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Education
Decision Summary
The director found that the petitioner qualified as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, but had not established that an exemption from the job offer requirement would be in the national interest of the United States. The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate, under the NYSDOT framework, that they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications.
Criteria Discussed
