Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish eligibility for a national interest waiver. Although the petitioner qualified for the underlying EB-2 classification as an advanced degree professional, the Director found she failed to demonstrate that her proposed endeavor had national importance, that she was well-positioned to advance it, or that waiving the job offer requirement would benefit the United States.
