Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the required minimum of three evidentiary criteria. The Director initially found the petitioner met the criteria for a leading or critical role and a high salary, but not for membership in associations or original contributions. The AAO agreed, finding that the petitioner's membership in the Entrepreneurs' Organization did not qualify as its revenue-based entry requirements do not constitute 'outstanding achievements' judged by experts.
