Decision Summary

The motion to reopen and reconsider was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that his salary was indicative of exceptional ability. The AAO found the petitioner's remuneration was based on a standardized pay scale for his position and time in grade, rather than a reflection of his individual abilities compared to others in the field.
