EB-2 NIW
dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: English
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. The AAO determined that the petitioner relied on projections of future influence rather than submitting evidence of a past track record of success. The AAO also found that the petitioner's counsel mischaracterized legal precedent regarding the standards for a national interest waiver.
