Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO found that the petitioner met the statutory and regulatory requirements for classification as an alien of extraordinary ability. The director had initially determined the petitioner had not established the requisite ability, but on appeal, the AAO found the evidence was sufficient to meet at least three of the regulatory criteria.
