Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. While the director acknowledged that the petitioner qualified as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree and worked in a field of intrinsic merit, the petitioner did not sufficiently demonstrate that they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications.
