Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification. Specifically, he did not provide sufficient credible evidence to demonstrate he possessed a bachelor's degree followed by the required five years of progressive experience. As the petitioner did not qualify for the underlying visa, the issue of the national interest waiver was considered moot.
