Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility as an alien of extraordinary ability. The AAO concurred with the director that the petitioner did not provide evidence of a one-time major achievement or meet at least three of the ten regulatory criteria. Specifically, the evidence for nationally or internationally recognized prizes was deemed not credible due to significant discrepancies on the award certificates, which the petitioner failed to resolve with authentic documentation.
