All Cases

The motion to reconsider was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to establish that the prior decision was based on an incorrect application of law or policy. The Petitioner repeated arguments already addressed and attempted to submit new evidence that was not part of the original record. Additionally, the underlying petition was found to contain documentation with potential misrepresentations and lacked evidence of sustained national or international acclaim.

The appeal was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to meet at least three regulatory criteria. Evidence for lead roles did not name the Beneficiary, published materials were either self-published on Amazon Kindle after filing or lacked demonstrated significance, and salary comparisons were insufficient as they compared a 'culinary director' to 'chefs' without accounting for different responsibilities. Additionally, new evidence submitted on appeal was not considered because the Petitioner had prior opportunity to provide it.
