dismissed EB-1A Case: Business
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the evidence failed to meet the claimed criteria. The beneficiary's awards were determined to be local, not for excellence in his field, or were for being a 'finalist' rather than a recipient. Additionally, his membership in a CEO organization was based on company size and revenue, not on outstanding achievements as judged by experts.
Criteria Discussed
Receipt Of Lesser Nationally Or Internationally Recognized Prizes Or Awards Membership In Associations Requiring Outstanding Achievement
