Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. Although the petitioner had a significant past career as a diplomatic interpreter for high-level officials in China, he did not establish that his proposed work as a Chinese-Spanish translator in the U.S. would provide a benefit that was national in scope or would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a qualified U.S. worker.
