dismissed EB-1A Case: Molecular Diagnostics
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the AAO determined the beneficiary did not meet the minimum of three required evidentiary criteria. While the Service Center Director found four criteria were met, the AAO disagreed, concluding the evidence for 'original contributions' and 'high salary' was insufficient, as the beneficiary's contributions showed only potential future impact rather than established major significance.
