dismissed EB-1A Case: High Pressure Physics
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim. The evidence submitted for the 'prizes or awards' criterion, such as academic honors and a single conference award from nearly five years prior, was insufficient to demonstrate sustained acclaim. Additionally, the petitioner did not prove that his memberships in scientific societies required outstanding achievements for entry.
