Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility by meeting the required evidentiary criteria for an alien of extraordinary ability. The AAO found the petitioner did not submit evidence of a major one-time achievement or satisfy at least three of the ten regulatory criteria. Specifically, the evidence for membership in associations was deemed insufficient as it failed to establish that the associations required outstanding achievements of their members as judged by experts.
