dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Logistics
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree. The AAO found the foreign degree evaluation, which equated a bachelor's to a combined bachelor's and master's degree, to be unpersuasive. The petitioner also failed to demonstrate the alternative requirement of a bachelor's degree followed by five years of progressive, post-baccalaureate experience in the specialty.
