Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish her initial eligibility for the EB-2 category, which is a prerequisite for considering a national interest waiver. She did not prove her foreign degree was equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree or provide sufficient evidence of five years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience. The petitioner also failed to meet the minimum criteria to be considered a noncitizen of exceptional ability.
