sustained EB-2 NIW Case: Polymer Science
Decision Summary
The director initially denied the petition, finding the petitioner had not established that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. The AAO sustained the appeal, determining that the petitioner's past record of achievements in polymer science, particularly the discovery of a new block copolymer morphology and research into drug delivery systems for cancer treatment, justified future benefit to the national interest.
