Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 visa classification. The AAO questioned the credibility of the petitioner's foreign education evaluation, noting it contained information for a different petitioner, used templated language, and was not supported by academic transcripts, thus failing to prove the petitioner held a qualifying advanced degree.
