Decision Summary
The Director denied the petition for only meeting two of the required three evidentiary criteria. The AAO found the Director incorrectly dismissed evidence for the 'leading or critical role' criterion, concluding the petitioner had satisfied it and thus met the three-criteria threshold. The case was remanded for the Director to conduct a final merits determination based on the totality of the evidence.
