EB-1B Dismissed โ Chemistry (2005): did not establish the beneficiary met the required criteria
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary met the required criteria. The evidence for membership in professional associations did not demonstrate that these associations require outstanding achievements of their members. Additionally, the evidence for original research contributions, including letters from experts, was deemed insufficient to prove that the beneficiary's work had a significant impact on the field or had garnered international recognition.
