dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that his past record justified projections of future benefit to the national interest. Although he had conducted influential research as a graduate student, he had since ceased to publish, and his subsequent employment was with a company whose impact was minimal and was accused of fraud. Therefore, he did not demonstrate that he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker.
