dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Medicinal Chemistry
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a researcher in medicinal chemistry, failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. While the petitioner was found to qualify as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, the evidence of past accomplishments was not sufficient to demonstrate that the petitioner would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications.
