Decision Summary

The appeal was remanded because the director applied the incorrect legal standard to the case. The director improperly requested evidence based on the general three-prong test from Matter of New York State Dept. of Transportation, instead of evaluating the petition under the specific statutory and regulatory requirements for an alien physician seeking a national interest waiver for service in a medically underserved area.
