sustained EB-2 NIW Case: Immunology
Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the petitioner demonstrated that a waiver of the job offer requirement was warranted. Despite some weaknesses in the evidence, the petitioner showed that his first-authored article generated media attention, served as a basis for clinical trials and private funding for his employer, and that he had been consistently cited. This evidence, in the aggregate, was sufficient to approve the petition.
