dismissed EB-1A Case: Architecture
Decision Summary

An award submitted as evidence was won by the petitioner's firm, not the petitioner himself, and it was received after the petition's filing date, making it ineligible. Furthermore, the petitioner did not establish that this award qualified as a major, internationally recognized award.
