Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 visa classification. The petitioner did not submit sufficient evidence, such as letters from former employers, to demonstrate at least five years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience, which is required to be considered equivalent to holding an advanced degree. Because the petitioner did not meet this foundational requirement, the national interest waiver claim was not considered.
