Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed primarily because the petitioner was not a legal entity at the time of filing, and therefore not a valid U.S. employer. The AAO also found the beneficiary's proposed work lacked credibility and the evidence submitted only met one of the required evidentiary criteria, failing to demonstrate the beneficiary's extraordinary ability.

Criteria Discussed

Valid U.S. Employer Work In The Area Of Extraordinary Ability Nationally Or Internationally Recognized Prizes Or Awards
