Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate she met the minimum of three required evidentiary criteria for an individual of extraordinary ability. The AAO concurred with the Director that the petitioner only satisfied one criterion (display of work), finding her evidence for membership in associations and original contributions insufficient. The petitioner's memberships did not require 'outstanding achievements' and the letters of support did not establish that her contributions were of 'major significance' to her field.
