Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as an individual of exceptional ability. The AAO found the petitioner did not meet at least three of the required evidentiary criteria, concluding her economics degree was not sufficiently related to her tourism profession and that she did not prove her membership was in a qualifying professional association. As the petitioner did not meet the threshold eligibility for the visa category, the national interest waiver could not be granted.
