dismissed EB-1A Case: Fence Installer
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a fence installer, failed to demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim. The submitted evidence, including letters from customers, tax returns, and local advertisements, was deemed insufficient to meet any of the regulatory criteria for an alien of extraordinary ability. The AAO concluded that the evidence demonstrated local business success rather than achievements that placed the petitioner at the very top of his field.
