dismissed EB-1A Case: Music Management
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility for at least three of the required evidentiary criteria. Although the Director initially found only one criterion met, the AAO determined on appeal that the petitioner satisfied a second criterion (leading or critical role). However, the petitioner failed to meet the 'high salary' criterion and did not challenge the denial of others, thus failing to meet the minimum threshold of three criteria.
