Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification. The AAO found the record insufficient to prove he possessed the equivalent of a U.S. advanced degree, as the evidence did not demonstrate five years of progressive experience specifically in his specialty of biomedical materials engineering, distinct from his other varied duties as a CEO.
