Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the AAO affirmed the director's revocation of a previously approved petition. The director found that the self-petitioner willfully misrepresented material facts related to several criteria, including prizes/awards, authorship of scholarly articles, and high salary. The petitioner did not contest their ineligibility on appeal, focusing only on the misrepresentation finding, which the AAO upheld.
