dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Epidemiology
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the third prong of the national interest waiver test. While her work in epidemiology was acknowledged to have substantial intrinsic merit and be national in scope, she did not establish that her past accomplishments had a significant influence on the field or that she would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications.
