Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because the Director's initial decision failed to analyze the petitioner's eligibility for the underlying EB-2 visa classification. The Director denied the petition based on the national interest waiver criteria without first establishing whether the petitioner qualified as an advanced degree professional or an individual of exceptional ability. The AAO sent the case back for a new decision that includes this required analysis.
