dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Mechanical Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the third prong of the national interest waiver test. While the petitioner's work in engineering was found to be of substantial intrinsic merit and national in scope, they did not establish that they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker. The petitioner did not demonstrate a past history of achievement with a significant degree of influence on the field as a whole.
