dismissed EB-1B Case: Mechanical Engineering
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because although the petitioner submitted evidence under two regulatory criteria (judging the work of others and scholarly articles), this evidence was found to reflect routine duties and not to establish the beneficiary's international recognition. Additionally, the AAO found that the petitioner failed to submit the actual job offer letter addressed to the beneficiary, which is a required piece of initial evidence.
