Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility as an individual of exceptional ability, which is a prerequisite for the national interest waiver. The AAO determined the petitioner did not meet the required number of criteria, specifically finding the evidence for commanding a high salary was insufficient due to irrelevant wage comparisons and unclear financial documents with discrepancies. Since the petitioner did not qualify for the underlying EB-2 classification, the request for a national interest waiver was also denied.
