dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Education
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a kindergarten teacher, failed to meet the national interest waiver requirements. While her work was found to have substantial intrinsic merit, she did not establish that its benefits would be national in scope or that she would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker, as her impact was deemed localized to her school.
