Framework Evaluation

0 of 3 criteria met
1 Substantial Merit and National Importance Not Met

Inconsistent representations by the petitioner obscured the nature of the endeavor, making it impossible to evaluate.

Why This Petition Was Denied

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not meet at least three of the six regulatory criteria for exceptional ability under 8 C.F.R. § 204.5(k)(3)(ii). Additionally, the petitioner's inconsistent representations obscured the nature of the proposed endeavor, failing the first prong of the Dhanasar framework.

Request for Evidence (RFE)

Unsuccessfully Addressed

The RFE addressed the petitioner's qualifications for EB-2 and the details of the proposed endeavor; the response was found to be a reiteration of previous documentation that did not resolve the issues.
