dismissed EB-1A Case: Peking Opera Performance
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim. The evidence submitted for a national award lacked proof of its significance, and claims of commercial success were unsubstantiated by box office receipts or financial records. The AAO also noted inconsistencies in the record, such as the petitioner's passport listing her profession as 'Manager,' and found the petitioner did not provide clear evidence of her intent to continue work in her field in the United States.
