dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Environmental Hydrogeology
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that they met the third prong of the national interest waiver test. While the petitioner's work was in an area of merit, the evidence submitted, including letters of support, focused on the petitioner's training and potential future impact rather than demonstrating a past record of concrete achievements that would justify projections of future benefit to the national interest.
