dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Engineering
Decision Summary
The motion to reopen was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying classification. Specifically, the petitioner's salary at the time of filing was found to be significantly below the prevailing wage for similar engineering positions in the area, failing the criterion for high remuneration. Evidence of higher earnings submitted on motion was from a period after the petition's filing date and therefore could not be considered.
Criteria Discussed
At Least Ten Years Of Full-Time Experience Commanded A Salary Or Other Remuneration For Services Which Demonstrates Exceptional Ability
