Decision Summary

The petitioner, a medical researcher, sought a national interest waiver. The Director denied the petition, concluding that while the petitioner qualified as a member of the professions with an advanced degree, the record did not establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest. The AAO conducted a de novo review and dismissed the appeal, concurring with the Director's ultimate conclusion.
