Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest of the United States. While the director acknowledged the petitioner qualifies as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, the evidence submitted, including patent applications and business activities, was not sufficient to demonstrate a past record of achievement that justifies projections of future benefit to the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker.
