This case is from a USCIS Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) appeal decision. Appeal cases represent a subset of petitions and may not reflect typical outcomes.

Proposed Endeavor

Framework Evaluation

0 of 3 criteria met

Why This Petition Was Denied

The appeal was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to satisfy at least three of the six regulatory criteria for exceptional ability, meeting only the academic record criterion. Specifically, the Petitioner failed to provide sufficient evidence of ten years of full-time experience, a high salary compared to others in the field, membership in professional associations, or recognition for significant contributions.

Request for Evidence (RFE)

Unsuccessfully Addressed

The RFE sought to address deficiencies in the Petitioner's claim of exceptional ability and the three Dhanasar prongs. The Petitioner responded with additional employment and salary information which was ultimately deemed insufficient.
