dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Organic Chemistry
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the third prong of the national interest waiver test. While the petitioner's work was in an area of merit, the evidence, including only 14 independent citations for his articles, did not demonstrate that his past achievements were significant enough to establish he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications.
