Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as an individual of exceptional ability. The AAO affirmed the Director's findings that the evidence did not meet the regulatory criteria for academic record, ten years of experience, professional memberships, high salary, or recognition of achievements. Since the petitioner did not meet the threshold EB-2 requirements, the national interest waiver was not considered.
