Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because the director applied the incorrect legal standard. Instead of evaluating the petition under the specific criteria for alien physicians seeking a National Interest Waiver (8 C.F.R. § 204.12), the director incorrectly requested evidence based on the general three-prong test established in Matter of New York State Department of Transportation.
