Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because the director's decision contained legal errors and ignored submitted evidence. The director erroneously implied the petitioner had to meet specific criteria, focused on criteria the petitioner did not claim to meet (like awards and memberships), and failed to consider the considerable published materials provided. The case was sent back for the director to issue a new, proper request for evidence and re-evaluate the petition.
