Decision Summary

The motion to reopen was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the underlying requirements for EB-2 classification as an individual of exceptional ability. The petitioner satisfied only two of the required three criteria, failing to prove recognition for achievements and significant contributions. The new eligibility claims and evidence presented in the motion were procedurally improper and not considered.
