Decision Summary

The appeal was remanded because the Director's initial decision failed to analyze the petitioner's basic eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification. The AAO instructed the Director to first determine whether the petitioner qualifies as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree before making a determination on the national interest waiver itself.
