Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary possessed the requisite extraordinary ability, as demonstrated by sustained national or international acclaim and extensive documentation. The director initially denied the petition for this reason, and the AAO upheld the decision. The petitioner's argument that the director should have requested more evidence before denial was rejected, as it is not a requirement and the petitioner was able to supplement the record on appeal.
