Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained and the petition was approved. The director had initially denied the petition, finding that the petitioner had not established that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. The AAO overturned this decision, concluding that the petitioner did meet the criteria for a national interest waiver based on their work as a postdoctoral fellow in cancer research.
