Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the sustained national or international acclaim required for classification as an alien of extraordinary ability. The director's initial approval was later revoked upon re-evaluation, and the AAO affirmed that an incorrect approval is sufficient cause for revocation. The decision also heavily emphasized that eligibility must be established at the time of filing and that evidence of achievements post-dating the filing cannot be considered to meet this initial burden.
