dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Education
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a high school Spanish teacher, failed to establish that the benefits of her work were national in scope. While the Director found her work had substantial intrinsic merit, the petitioner did not demonstrate that her influence extended beyond her local classroom and school district to a degree sufficient to meet the national interest waiver requirements.
Criteria Discussed
Substantial Intrinsic Merit National In Scope Benefit To A Substantially Greater Degree Than A U.S. Worker
