dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Health Statistics
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because while the petitioner's work in health statistics was found to have substantial intrinsic merit and be national in scope, the petitioner failed to meet the third prong of the national interest waiver test. The petitioner did not establish that their past achievements demonstrated a degree of influence on the field as a whole, or that they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a qualified U.S. worker.
