Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification. The AAO found the petitioner did not qualify as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, as his post-baccalaureate experience was not in an occupation requiring a bachelor's degree. The petitioner also failed to demonstrate that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest.
