sustained EB-2 NIW Case: Physics
Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO determined that the petitioner had successfully established that a waiver of the job offer requirement was in the national interest of the United States. This decision overturned the director's initial finding, which had acknowledged the petitioner's qualification as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree but denied the national interest waiver.
