Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because the Director's denial was insufficient for review. The Director failed to address evidence and arguments the Petitioner submitted in response to a Request for Evidence (RFE), particularly concerning the criteria for awards, original contributions, and leading/critical roles, which constituted clear error. The AAO instructed the Director to re-evaluate all evidence and issue a new, sufficiently detailed decision.
