sustained EB-2 NIW Case: Biomedical Research
Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO found that the petitioner successfully established that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest. The director had initially denied the petition, but on appeal, the AAO determined that the petitioner's record of past achievements in biomedical and agricultural research justified projections of future benefit to the United States.
