dismissed EB-1B Case: Chemical Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because, despite meeting three initial evidentiary criteria, the petitioner failed to demonstrate in the final merits determination that the beneficiary was internationally recognized as outstanding. The AAO found the evidence regarding her peer review activities, publications, and citation record was insufficient to prove that her accomplishments had garnered significant international recognition in her field.
