dismissed EB-1A Case: Mechanical Engineering
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 was found insufficient, as the petitioner did not demonstrate that the awards were nationally or internationally recognized for excellence in the field. Academic scholarships were also discounted as they represent achievements in training rather than professional accomplishment.
