Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 immigrant classification. The petitioner did not provide evidence that her foreign degree was equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree or adequately document five years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience. Because eligibility for the underlying classification was not met, the petitioner was not eligible for the national interest waiver.
