EB-1B Dismissed — Cancer Research (2005): did not establish the beneficiary is recognized
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary is recognized internationally as outstanding. The evidence submitted for memberships, published material about the beneficiary's work (citations), and judging the work of others was found to be insufficient. Additionally, the AAO noted that the record lacked a permanent job offer, a basic requirement for the petition.
