Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 visa classification as an individual of exceptional ability. The AAO conducted a de novo review and determined that the petitioner only met one of the six regulatory criteria, falling short of the required minimum of three. As the petitioner did not demonstrate exceptional ability, she was not eligible for a national interest waiver.
