Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the underlying eligibility for the EB-2 classification as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree. The petitioner could not sufficiently prove he had the requisite five years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience through self-employment, as the evidence regarding his clinic's business operations and physical location was inconsistent and insufficient.
