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 AAO reviewed the regulatory criteria and concluded the petitioner only met one, failing to meet the minimum requirement of three. As the petitioner did not qualify for the underlying visa classification, her eligibility for a national interest waiver was not considered.
