dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Neonatal-Perinatal 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. The AAO found that the petitioner's clinical work is inherently local, not national in scope, and that his knowledge of a complex medical procedure constitutes advanced training, not a contribution substantially greater than that of a qualified U.S. worker.
