dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Special Education
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker. The petitioner's awards and certificates were determined to be local in nature and did not establish recognition or impact beyond the individual schools where they taught, thus failing to meet the high standard for the waiver.
