dismissed EB-2 (NIW)
Management Analyst And Entrepreneur
Human Resources Management · Brazil · 2025-03-26
This case is from a USCIS Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) appeal decision. Appeal cases represent a subset of petitions and may not reflect typical outcomes.
Proposed Endeavor
The petitioner proposes to work as a management analyst and entrepreneur in the field of human resources management in the United States.
Why This Petition Was Denied
The appeal was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification. For the advanced degree category, the Petitioner did not prove their foreign degree was equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree or that they had five years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience in the specialty. For the exceptional ability category, the Petitioner only met one of the six required criteria (official academic record), falling short of the minimum three criteria needed. The AAO did not evaluate the Dhanasar prongs for the national interest waiver.
