Decision Summary

The appeal was remanded because the Director's initial decision was incomplete. The Director failed to analyze whether the petitioner qualified for the underlying EB-2 classification as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree. Additionally, while the Director found the petitioner met the first prong of the national interest waiver framework, the decision did not identify the evidence supporting that conclusion.
