Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the director determined the petitioner had not established the requisite extraordinary ability and failed to submit extensive documentation of sustained national or international acclaim. The AAO also rejected the petitioner's argument that a Request for Evidence should have been issued, stating that it is a discretionary action and the director was within his authority to deny the petition based on the initial evidence provided.
