Decision Summary

The appeal was remanded because the Director's denial failed to first properly analyze the Petitioner's basic eligibility as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree. The AAO identified deficiencies in the record, such as the lack of an official academic transcript to support a foreign degree evaluation and ambiguity around the graduation date, which are necessary to determine if the Petitioner meets the advanced degree or equivalent experience requirements.
