Decision Summary
The appeal was remanded because the Director's decision was deemed insufficient for review due to inconsistent conclusions. The Director initially stated that the petitioner met the plain language requirements for three exceptional ability criteria, but later contradicted this by concluding the petitioner had not met at least three criteria. This internal conflict necessitated a new decision.
