dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Education
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a library media specialist, failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest. While the director agreed the petitioner held an advanced degree, it was found that their past achievements did not demonstrate that they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications.
