dismissed EB-1B Case: Psychometrics
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because, despite meeting the minimum two evidentiary criteria (judging others' work and authorship), the petitioner failed to demonstrate in the final merits determination that the beneficiary was recognized internationally as outstanding. While the beneficiary's work improved her employer's educational assessment products, the evidence did not show that these contributions were recognized as outstanding innovations by the broader field.
