Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the EB-2 classification as an advanced degree professional, as there was no demonstrated nexus between their Master's degree in Applied Mathematics and their proposed employment as a language tester. The AAO also found that the petitioner had not established that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest.
