dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Medicine
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. While the petitioner's work in medical research is of intrinsic merit and national in scope, the evidence submitted did not demonstrate that her past achievements justified projections of future benefit to the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker. The awards presented were from her time as a student and did not establish influence on the field as a whole.
