dismissed EB-1A Case: Henan Opera
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility for at least three of the required criteria for an alien of extraordinary ability. The evidence for membership in an association did not prove it required outstanding achievements, and the submission of a VCD jacket did not establish commercial success. The AAO also noted a failure to provide clear evidence that the petitioner intended to continue working in her field in the United States.
