sustained EB-2 NIW Case: Medical Genetics

📅 Date unknown 👤 Individual 📂 Medical Genetics

Decision Summary

The director had denied the petition, finding that while the petitioner qualified as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, they had not established that a national interest waiver of the job offer requirement was warranted. The AAO sustained the appeal, concluding that the petitioner's past record of achievement in medical genetics, including work on NIH-funded projects and development of widely used bioinformatics tools, justified a finding that their continued work would be in the national interest.
