Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification, which is a prerequisite for a national interest waiver. Specifically, the petitioner did not provide the required letters from employers to prove five years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience to qualify as an advanced degree professional, and also failed to demonstrate exceptional ability under the alternative criteria.
