Decision Summary
The Director initially denied the petition, finding the petitioner only met two of the required three evidentiary criteria. On appeal, the AAO found that the petitioner did establish a third criterion, performing in a leading or critical role for an organization with a distinguished reputation. Because the petitioner met the initial evidentiary threshold of three criteria, the case was remanded for a full final merits determination, which the Director had not previously conducted.
