dismissed EB-1A Case: Embroidery
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to provide sufficient evidence to satisfy at least three of the required criteria. For the authorship criterion, her name was not listed on the book she claimed to have written. For exhibitions, high salary, and commercial successes, the petitioner provided only photographs with unsubstantiated personal claims and lacked objective evidence like sales receipts, exhibition pamphlets, or proof of the prestige of the showcases.
