Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that a waiver of the job offer and labor certification requirement would be in the national interest of the United States. The director found the beneficiary qualified as an alien of exceptional ability, but the petitioner failed to meet the three-prong test for a national interest waiver as established in Matter of New York State Dept. of Transportation.
