dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Neurology
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the national interest waiver. The AAO rejected counsel's argument that the petitioner's inability to obtain a labor certification due to the position's combined duties was a basis for granting the waiver, noting that this is not the standard and that counsel's interpretation of labor certification regulations was incorrect.
