dismissed EB-1A Case: Fine Arts
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the sustained national or international acclaim required for the classification. The evidence for awards was deemed too old to demonstrate sustained acclaim or was not proven to be a nationally recognized prize for excellence. Additionally, the evidence for membership in associations did not show that outstanding achievement was a prerequisite for joining.
