dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Thermoelectric Energy Conversion
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. While the petitioner's research into thermoelectric energy conversion was found to have intrinsic merit and be national in scope, the evidence did not sufficiently distinguish the petitioner's individual contributions from others performing similar work, thereby failing the third prong of the national interest waiver test.
Criteria Discussed
