dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Law
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, an attorney, failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest. The AAO found that the evidence submitted, which included a form letter from President George W. Bush, political party awards, and pro bono service recognition, did not demonstrate that the petitioner would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker, as required by the third prong of the national interest waiver test.
