dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Medicinal Chemistry
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest. The director found the petitioner qualified as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, but the evidence did not demonstrate her past achievements justified projections of future benefit to a degree substantially greater than an available U.S. worker. The evidence of her past discoveries lacked proof of current, real-world impact.
