Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to provide sufficient evidence to meet the minimum of three regulatory criteria for an alien of extraordinary ability. The AAO found the petitioner's arguments, such as comparing the beneficiary to the petitioner's own immigration case from decades prior, to be irrelevant. The petitioner did not submit sufficient supporting documentary evidence for their claims, thus failing to demonstrate the beneficiary had sustained national or international acclaim and was at the very top of her field.
