dismissed EB-1A Case: Martial Arts
Decision Summary

The AAO found significant inconsistencies in the record, such as an award certificate listing the petitioner in an incorrect age group, which rendered the evidence suspect. The petitioner did not resolve these discrepancies with independent, objective evidence.
