dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Special Education
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because while the petitioner's work as a special education teacher was found to be of substantial intrinsic merit, she failed to establish that the benefits of her work would be national in scope. The petitioner also did not demonstrate that she would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications, as required for a national interest waiver.
