Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary meets the high standard for extraordinary ability. The petitioner did not provide evidence satisfying at least three of the ten regulatory criteria. Specifically, the AAO found that awards and high ratings received by the restaurants the beneficiary managed did not constitute prizes or awards for excellence given to the beneficiary himself.
