dismissed EB-1A Case: Peking Opera
Decision Summary

The evidence for awards was deemed to reflect only local recognition or lacked proof of national significance. Furthermore, the petitioner did not establish that membership in the submitted associations required outstanding achievement, and the evidence for judging did not prove the evaluation was of other experts in the field.
