EB-1B Dismissed โ Educational Research: did not establish the beneficiary met the minimum of two
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary met the minimum of two regulatory criteria required to prove they are recognized internationally as an outstanding researcher. While the AAO withdrew the director's findings regarding the petitioner's status as a qualifying employer and the beneficiary's academic field, it concurred that the evidence only supported meeting one of the six criteria.
