Decision Summary
The motion to reopen was granted, but the denial of the petition was reaffirmed. The AAO found that the petitioner failed to establish eligibility as an alien of exceptional ability, as he did not meet the specific evidentiary requirements defined by regulation. The petitioner's arguments were dismissed as philosophical rather than providing the necessary documentation to satisfy the visa criteria.
