Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as an individual of exceptional ability. The AAO agreed with the Director that the petitioner only satisfied two of the required three criteria, and did not sufficiently prove eligibility under the criteria for licensure, high remuneration, or recognition for achievements. Because the petitioner did not qualify for the base visa category, the national interest waiver component was not analyzed.
