Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility. Specifically, the petitioner did not show that his memberships in professional associations required outstanding achievements as judged by experts, a key requirement for that criterion. The AAO found the petitioner's argument that no such associations exist in his field to be unsubstantiated.
