Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 visa category. The petitioner did not provide the required primary evidence, specifically an official academic record for their foreign baccalaureate degree, even after a Request for Evidence was issued. A third-party credential evaluation was deemed insufficient to meet the regulatory requirements.
