dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Science Education
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a high school science teacher, did not establish her eligibility for a national interest waiver. While the Director acknowledged her work has substantial intrinsic merit, the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the benefits of her work would be national in scope or that her past achievements showed a sufficient degree of influence on the field as a whole to justify waiving the labor certification requirement.
