Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as an individual of exceptional ability. The petitioner only met one of the required three evidentiary criteria, failing to sufficiently document ten years of experience, a high salary, or membership in a professional association at the time of filing.
