dismissed O-1B Case: Fine Arts
Decision Summary
The motion to reconsider was dismissed primarily on a procedural ground: the petitioner failed to submit a required statement about any related judicial proceedings. The AAO also affirmed its prior decision on the merits, stating that the petitioner had not demonstrated that the beneficiary, a painter, currently meets the standard of a renowned, leading, or well-known artist, as much of the evidence was outdated.
