Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because the Director's denial was procedurally flawed. The AAO found that the Director failed to consider much of the evidence, did not provide specific written reasons for the denial, and improperly dismissed evidence based on vague or nonexistent regulatory requirements for 'attribution' and translation certifications. The case was sent back for a new decision based on a proper review of the entire record.
