dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Special Education
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the benefits of her work as a special education teacher were national in scope. Although the director agreed that the petitioner's field has substantial intrinsic merit, the evidence submitted was local in nature and did not establish that her work had an impact on the education field as a whole, beyond her specific school.
Criteria Discussed
