dismissed O-1B Case: Music

📅 Nov 12, 2014 👤 Individual 📂 Music

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the beneficiary's eligibility. The director initially found that the petitioner only met one of the required three evidentiary criteria. A key deficiency noted in the AAO's review was the submission of documents in a foreign language without the full, certified English translations required by regulation, rendering them without evidentiary value and insufficient to prove the beneficiary's role or the reputation of the events.
