Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the AAO made a formal finding of material misrepresentation, determining that the petitioner willfully submitted false reference letters and uncertified translations. Separately, the AAO also upheld the director's finding that the petitioner failed to submit qualifying evidence under at least three of the ten regulatory categories to establish sustained national or international acclaim.
