Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as a professional holding an advanced degree. The AAO found issues with the provided translations of the petitioner's foreign academic documents and deemed the educational evaluation to be unreliable and inaccurate, thus withdrawing the Director's initial finding that the petitioner qualified for the classification.
