dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Special Education
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a special education teacher, failed to establish that the benefits of his work were national in scope or that he had sufficient influence on his field. Although his proposed work was found to have substantial intrinsic merit, his impact was deemed localized, and evidence of future contributions, like unpublished research, could not establish eligibility at the time of filing.
