Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as an individual of exceptional ability. The petitioner did not meet the required three evidentiary criteria, specifically failing to provide sufficient evidence for 'recognition for achievements and significant contributions,' as the submitted documents were either irrelevant, related to future work, or deemed unreliable due to significant errors.
