remanded EB-1A Case: Chinese Opera
Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because the AAO disagreed with the director's initial reason for denial, which was that the petitioner was not seeking to continue work in his area of expertise. However, the AAO found the director's conclusion that the petitioner established sustained national acclaim to be questionable and also noted derogatory information that required further action by the director.
