Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the underlying eligibility for the EB-2 classification as an individual of exceptional ability. The AAO's de novo review concluded the petitioner only met one of the required three evidentiary criteria, withdrawing the director's initial finding that three were met. Since the petitioner did not qualify for the EB-2 classification, they were consequently ineligible for a national interest waiver.
