dismissed EB-1A Case: Global Financial Reporting And Analysis
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish the sustained national or international acclaim required for the classification. The evidence for the 'awards' criterion (a CFA designation) was obtained after the petition was filed and could not be considered. The petitioner's memberships in various associations did not meet the 'memberships' criterion as they did not require outstanding achievements for entry, but rather standard work experience or examination completion.
