Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary is an alien of extraordinary ability. The AAO found that the submitted evidence for awards, memberships, publications, and high salary did not meet the regulatory standards. The awards were not proven to be nationally or internationally significant, the associations did not require outstanding achievements, the published material consisted of advertisements, and the proffered salary was not established as high at the time of filing.
