Decision Summary

The motion to reopen was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the foundational eligibility for EB-2 classification. The petitioner did not provide sufficient evidence, such as an official diploma, transcript, or a persuasive academic evaluation, to prove he holds an advanced degree or its U.S. equivalent. As the petitioner did not demonstrate he was an advanced degree professional, his eligibility for a national interest waiver was not considered.
