Decision Summary
The director's decision was withdrawn and the petition was remanded due to a procedural error. The director had denied the petition because the petitioner failed to submit any evidence addressing the required criteria for extraordinary ability. The AAO determined that under regulation 8 C.F.R. § 103.2(b)(8), the director should have issued a request for evidence (RFE) before denying the petition, as initial evidence was missing.
