remanded EB-2 NIW Case: Journalism

๐Ÿ“… Date unknown ๐Ÿ‘ค Individual ๐Ÿ“‚ Journalism

Decision Summary

The appeal was remanded because the director's decision was found to be procedurally and substantively deficient. The director failed to make a specific finding on whether the petitioner qualifies as an alien of exceptional ability, as previously instructed. Furthermore, the director improperly focused on the petitioner's current work as a taxi driver rather than his intended employment as a newspaper publisher, and failed to adequately discuss the evidence related to the national interest waiver criteria.

Criteria Discussed
