dismissed EB-1A Case: Peking Opera
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim. The AAO determined the awards submitted were local, provincial, or institutional rather than nationally or internationally recognized. Furthermore, the petitioner did not establish that his membership in the 'China Dramatist Association' required outstanding achievements for admission as judged by national or international experts.
