Decision Summary

The appeal was remanded because the Director's initial finding that the petitioner qualified for EB-2 classification was not supported by the record. The AAO found the evidence insufficient to establish the U.S. equivalency of the petitioner's foreign degree or the required five years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience. The case was sent back for a new decision addressing this fundamental eligibility issue before the national interest waiver can be considered.
