This is an AAO appeal decision — a case denied once and appealed. It shows how the framework is applied; it is not the filing population.
The Petitioner, an education specialist, sought classification as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree with a national interest waiver, though the underlying endeavor is not described in detail.

Notable
This decision does not address NIW eligibility on the merits; the Petitioner conceded she is not eligible for the waiver. The motion concerned solely a finding of willful misrepresentation, which the AAO withdrew (attributing discrepancies to the petition preparer's negligence rather than the Petitioner), but the motion was still dismissed because the underlying revocation of the NIW approval was unchallenged.
