dismissed EB-1A Case: Veterinary Science
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim. The petitioner's awards were found to lack evidence of significant national or international recognition, and the criteria for some awards were not based solely on excellence in the field. Additionally, academic degrees and research fellowships were not considered prizes or awards for the purposes of this criterion.
