EB-1B Dismissed โ Engineering: did not establish the beneficiary is internationally
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary is internationally recognized as an outstanding researcher. The evidence provided for membership in associations (IEEE) was not shown to require outstanding achievements, the beneficiary's peer review activities were deemed routine, and the original research contributions were not proven to have gained significant recognition beyond his immediate colleagues.
