dismissed EB-1B Case: Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because, despite the Beneficiary meeting three of the initial evidentiary criteria, the AAO concluded that the evidence in its totality did not establish that he is internationally recognized as outstanding in his field. The decision noted that the Beneficiary's participation in peer review was a routine academic activity and not indicative of the high level of achievement required for the classification.
