Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the second and third prongs of the NYSDOT analysis. The Director found the petitioner did not establish that the benefits of his proposed work would be national in scope, nor did he demonstrate sufficient past achievement and influence on his field to prove he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker.
