Decision Summary

The Director's decision was withdrawn and the case was remanded. The AAO found the record insufficient to determine if the petitioner's foreign degrees were equivalent to a U.S. advanced degree, a prerequisite for the classification. The case was sent back for the Director to properly assess this educational qualification before considering the national interest waiver.
