Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. Although the AAO withdrew the Director's findings regarding document translations and found the petitioner did qualify for the underlying EB-2 classification as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, the petitioner ultimately did not meet the criteria for a national interest waiver.
