dismissed EB-1A Case: Sculpture
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim. The evidence for awards was found deficient, with many awards being provincial rather than national, lacking proper translations, and having no supporting evidence of their significance. The AAO also noted inconsistencies in the record and a lack of recent awards, indicating the petitioner's acclaim was not sustained.
