dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Volleyball Coaching
Decision Summary
The AAO found that the petitioner established exceptional ability as an athlete based on her past accomplishments, primarily from the 1980s. However, the petition was ultimately denied because the petitioner failed to establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest, as the proposed benefits of her employment as an assistant coach for a small college were not deemed nationally significant.
Criteria Discussed
At Least Ten Years Of Full-Time Experience Membership In Professional Associations Recognition For Achievements And Significant Contributions National Interest Waiver
