remanded EB-2 NIW Case: Biochemistry/Physiology
Decision Summary
The director's decision was withdrawn and the petition was remanded. The director had denied the petition, in part, because the petitioner failed to submit evidence of heavy citation to their work, but had not issued a Request for Evidence (RFE) for this information. The AAO determined that an RFE should have been issued to allow the petitioner the opportunity to provide documentation supporting their claims of a high citation count.
