Decision Summary

The AAO remanded the case because it found the Director improperly concluded the petitioner qualified for the underlying EB-2 classification. The petitioner failed to submit required original and translated academic records, making it impossible to determine if they held an advanced degree. The case was sent back for the Director to properly assess the petitioner's base eligibility before considering the national interest waiver criteria.
