EB-1B Dismissed — Finance: did not establish the beneficiary is recognized

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary is recognized internationally as outstanding in her academic field. The evidence submitted for the 'major prizes or awards' criterion was found deficient, as one grant was determined to be local and awarded after the filing date, while another award was from an organization whose international standing was questionable.
