Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for a national interest waiver under the Dhanasar framework. Although the AAO acknowledged that the petitioner's proposed work in instructional design has substantial merit and national importance, it ultimately agreed with the Director's finding that the petitioner had not sufficiently demonstrated eligibility for the waiver.
