dismissed EB-1A Case: Athletics
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to provide sufficient supporting documentary evidence for the claimed nationally or internationally recognized prizes or awards. Specifically, photographs of medals and trophies were not accompanied by evidence linking them to the petitioner or the specific competitions. The decision also noted a potential discrepancy between the petitioner's area of acclaim (competitive shooter) and his intended work (shooting instructor).
