Decision Summary

The appeal was remanded because the Director's denial was procedurally flawed. The AAO found the Director's analysis of the petitioner's 'exceptional ability' was insufficient, failing to properly explain why submitted certificates did not meet the criteria and failing to conduct a final merits determination to assess the totality of the evidence.
