Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications. The AAO determined that while the petitioner's field is important, he did not demonstrate a past history of achievement with significant influence on the field as a whole, which is necessary to qualify for the waiver.
