Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not meet the initial evidentiary requirements of the visa category. The Director found the petitioner did not satisfy at least three of the ten required criteria, and the AAO agreed, concluding the petitioner only successfully established one criterion (leading or critical roles). For instance, the evidence for awards showed they were granted to the petitioner's company rather than to him individually and were not proven to be nationally or internationally recognized.

Criteria Discussed

Lesser Nationally Or Internationally Recognized Awards Or Prizes Memberships In Associations That Require Outstanding Achievements Published Materials In Professional, Major Trade Publications Or Other Major Media Original Contributions Of Major Significance Leading Or Critical Roles With Organizations That Have A Distinguished Reputation High Salary Or Other Significantly High Remuneration In Relation To Others
