Decision Summary
The motion to reconsider was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the previous decision was based on an incorrect application of law or policy. The petitioner cited outdated, non-precedent cases decided before the 2010 Kazarian decision, which were not applicable. The AAO maintained its position that while the petitioner met three evidentiary criteria, the overall record did not establish sustained national or international acclaim or show that the petitioner is at the very top of the field.
