Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because the AAO found that the Director had not properly established the petitioner's basic eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as an advanced degree professional. The AAO identified issues with the evidence for her foreign bachelor's degree equivalency and her five years of progressive experience, along with unresolved inconsistencies in her employment documentation. The matter was returned for the Director to re-evaluate these foundational eligibility requirements before assessing the national interest waiver criteria.
