Decision Summary

The appeal was remanded because the AAO disagreed with the Director's conclusion that the petitioner qualified as an advanced degree professional. The case was sent back for the Director to make an initial determination on whether the petitioner qualifies for the underlying EB-2 classification based on exceptional ability, which had not been previously adjudicated. The AAO also noted concerns with the evidence submitted by the petitioner, such as a non-functional website with plagiarized content.
