dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Medicine
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 petitioner's claims regarding the rarity of her combined skills in gastroenterology and obstetrics/gynecology were found to be unsupported by concrete evidence, relying instead on counsel's assertions and witness estimates. Furthermore, the argument of a physician shortage was deemed insufficient, as specific statutory provisions exist for that purpose which the petitioner did not pursue.
