dismissed EB-1A Case: Economics
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the sustained national or international acclaim required for the classification. For the 'prizes or awards' criterion, the evidence was deemed insufficient because an award certificate was improperly translated and given no weight, and the petitioner failed to provide documentary evidence that the claimed awards were nationally or internationally recognized for excellence in the field.
