dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Financial Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because while the petitioner's proposed work offering financial engineering services to clients was found to have substantial merit, the record failed to demonstrate that the endeavor was of national importance. The petitioner did not establish that his work on specific client projects, such as financial restructuring or feasibility studies, would have a broader prospective impact on a national scale.
