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 AAO determined the evidence was insufficient to prove the required criteria, specifically finding she did not demonstrate ten years of full-time experience, remuneration that showed exceptional ability, or recognition for significant contributions to her field. As the petitioner did not qualify for the EB-2 classification, the AAO did not need to substantively analyze her eligibility for a national interest waiver.
