dismissed EB-1A Case: Mobile Application Development
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary met at least three of the ten evidentiary criteria for extraordinary ability. The AAO determined that evidence for membership in associations pertained to the petitioner's business relationships, not the beneficiary's personal membership. Similarly, the published articles were about the petitioner company and its products, not the beneficiary himself, and no corroborating evidence was provided to support the claim that the beneficiary judged the work of others.
