Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the minimum evidentiary requirements for the classification. Although the petitioner claimed to meet three criteria (awards, scholarly articles, high salary), the AAO concluded that the evidence only established one criterion, authorship of scholarly articles. The petitioner failed to demonstrate that her awards were nationally/internationally recognized or that she commanded a high salary in relation to others in her field.
