Decision Summary

The appeal was remanded because the Director's initial decision failed to properly adjudicate the case. The Director did not make a determination on whether the petitioner qualified for the underlying EB-2 classification (as either an advanced degree professional or an individual of exceptional ability) and also failed to provide a sufficient analysis under the Dhanasar framework for the national interest waiver itself.
