Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the foundational eligibility for the EB-2 classification as an advanced degree professional. The AAO found the petitioner's foreign educational credentials and the accompanying expert evaluation to be insufficient and inconsistent, failing to prove her Brazilian degree was equivalent to a U.S. baccalaureate degree or that she held an advanced degree.
