Decision Summary
The motion to reconsider was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the AAO's prior decision was incorrect. The AAO previously found that the petitioner had abandoned her claim of meeting the underlying 'exceptional ability' eligibility requirement on appeal, as she did not contest the director's adverse finding on that issue. Since establishing eligibility for the underlying classification is a prerequisite for a national interest waiver, the failure to address this issue was fatal to the case.
