Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as an individual of exceptional ability. Although the petitioner met the minimum requirement of satisfying three criteria, the Director found, and the AAO affirmed, that the petitioner did not demonstrate a degree of expertise significantly above that ordinarily encountered in his field in the final merits determination.
