dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. The petitioner's main argument on appeal was based on family hardship, which is not a legally permissible basis for a national interest waiver. The evidence submitted did not sufficiently demonstrate that the petitioner's work had a national scope or that his past accomplishments justified the waiver.
