dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Transportation Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a transportation engineer, failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. The AAO found that while the petitioner demonstrated activity in his field, the evidence did not prove that he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications. The submitted materials did not sufficiently distinguish his work from that of other qualified engineers.
