Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification. The petitioner did not prove he holds an advanced degree or its equivalent, as his submitted certificates did not constitute qualifying academic records. He also failed to meet the required three criteria for exceptional ability, with the AAO only finding that he met the criterion for ten years of experience.
