Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to respond to the director's notice of intent to deny, resulting in a lack of evidence to establish the beneficiary's extraordinary ability. The AAO declined to accept new evidence submitted for the first time on appeal and affirmed the denial, noting the record was devoid of proof for any of the required criteria.
