Published AAO appeal decisions

Real estate developer sought EB-1A extraordinary ability classification. Initial approval was revoked. AAO held petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility because she did not provide clear evidence that she would continue work as real estate developer in United States; supporting documents were undated, illegible, or belonged to spouse.

Sustainable development professional sought EB-1A extraordinary ability classification. Claimed five criteria but established none. Did not prove receipt of recognized awards, published material about his work, or display at artistic venues. AAO found no sustained national or international acclaim or evidence of rising to very top of field, dismissing appeal.
