Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary met the required number of evidentiary criteria for an alien of extraordinary ability. The AAO found the evidence submitted for memberships, published material, scholarly articles, and critical employment to be insufficient. Notably, some evidence, like a TV appearance and a published article, was disregarded because it occurred after the petition's filing date.
