Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proposed benefits of her employment as a school psychologist would be national in scope. The AAO found that the impact of her work would be limited to the students she serves directly and did not extend beyond the local school district, thus failing a key prong of the national interest waiver analysis.
