sustained EB-2 NIW Case: Finance
Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the petitioner demonstrated that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest. The decision was based on strong testimonial evidence from experts who highlighted the petitioner's innovative and influential work in finance and economics, particularly concerning Latin American markets, which had an international impact. The AAO found that the petitioner's past record justified projections of future benefit to the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a U.S. worker with similar qualifications.
