dismissed EB-1A Case: Martial Arts
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim. The AAO found that the submitted awards were not proven to be nationally or internationally significant, the evidence for membership in associations did not establish that outstanding achievement was a requirement for entry, and there was insufficient evidence of published material about the petitioner in major media.
