Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proposed endeavor in water purification has national importance, that they are well-positioned to advance it, or that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. The AAO also noted significant deficiencies in the evidence proving the petitioner held the equivalent of a U.S. advanced degree, which is a prerequisite for the EB-2 classification.
