remanded EB-1B Case: Academic Research
Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because the director's denial was based on subjective factors, such as salary and supervision, rather than an objective analysis of the evidence against the regulatory criteria. The AAO instructed the director to re-evaluate the beneficiary's claim of international recognition under the proper legal standard and to also make a determination on whether the job offer qualifies as permanent.
Criteria Discussed
