dismissed EB-1A Case: Painting
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to provide sufficient evidence to meet the regulatory criteria. The petitioner did not provide evidence for claimed awards, and those submitted were for local, not national, recognition with improperly certified translations. The evidence for memberships, exhibitions, and publications was also deemed insufficient to prove sustained national or international acclaim.
