dismissed EB-1A Case: Art
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the required sustained national or international acclaim. The AAO found that the submitted awards were local or provincial, lacked evidence of their prestige, and were not recent enough to demonstrate sustained acclaim, particularly given the petitioner's long residence in the U.S. Additionally, some supporting documents containing foreign languages were not accompanied by certified translations as required.
