dismissed EB-1A Case: Aerial Contortionist
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the sustained national or international acclaim required. The evidence submitted for the 'awards' criterion was found insufficient, as the awards were won almost a decade prior to the petition's filing and the petitioner did not establish that they were nationally or internationally recognized prizes for excellence in the field.
Criteria Discussed
Receipt Of Lesser Nationally Or Internationally Recognized Prizes Or Awards
