Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the prerequisite eligibility for the underlying EB-2 visa classification, either as an advanced degree professional or an individual of exceptional ability. On appeal, the petitioner did not provide evidence or arguments to address this deficiency, so the AAO considered the issue abandoned and dismissed the case without analyzing the national interest waiver criteria.
