Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed. Although the AAO found that the petitioner did establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as an individual of exceptional ability, the appeal was ultimately denied because the petitioner failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest under the Dhanasar framework.
