on balance, beneficial to the United States to waive job offer and labor certification
证据为何得到认可
AAO found the balance favored waiver because the petitioner's documented past success in developing experimental methods recognized and used by other scholars, contributions to public and private sector research, and expertise in the molecular foundations of cardiovascular disease establish that the United States would benefit from his contributions even assuming other qualified U.S. workers were available.

The AAO found that the Petitioner's patents, papers, and reference letters demonstrated the originality of his research but did not establish that his work had been of major significance—the documentation did not show others had extensively cited his work, that his research had been widely applied, or that his patents had impacted the field. Reference letters were primarily conclusory without specific examples of impact.

Beneficiary met labor certification requirements as of priority date
AAO 为什么未被说服
The labor certification's plain language at Part H.14 required drug testing/screening and background and reference checks. Because these were completed only after the priority date, they do not satisfy the requirement that the Beneficiary be qualified as of that date. The Petitioner cannot require U.S. workers to satisfy requirements it did not impose on the Beneficiary at the same time.

Continuing ability to pay proffered wage from priority date
AAO 为什么未被说服
AAO found the record lacked the required 2015 (and later) tax returns or audited financial statements, meaning the Petitioner did not demonstrate continuing ability to pay the $100,000 proffered wage from the April 29, 2015 priority date forward.
