AAO found that letters about the Petitioner's roles at the ITF-affiliated organizations described his work in general terms without establishing impact or corroborating evidence, and the organizations' distinguished reputation was not substantiated. While the Petitioner may have held a leading role as founder and president of his martial arts school, the school did not have an independently demonstrated distinguished reputation, as photographs of trophies lacked identifying information and testimonial letters were uncorroborated.
AAO found the prior decision correct: articles with only excerpt translations had limited probative value, and among fully translated articles only two mentioned the Petitioner but were not about him.…

AAO found the prior decision correct: articles with only excerpt translations had limited probative value, and among fully translated articles only two mentioned the Petitioner but were not about him. New evidence on reopening was also insufficient: at least half the articles lacked required bibliographic information, most were not about the Petitioner, and the television interview lacked required title/date/author and post-dated the filing.
Qualifying affiliate relationship between petitioner and foreign employer
AAO 为什么未被说服
The Petitioner's own evidence confirmed that the relevant Canadian entity was solely owned by the owner's son, not by the individual who owns the Petitioner, meaning there was no common ownership at the time of the Beneficiary's employment or at filing. Matter of Hughes does not support a qualifying relationship where there is no common ownership at all.…

Matter of Hughes does not support a qualifying relationship where there is no common ownership at all. The claimed amalgamation was inadequately documented and the inconsistencies in ownership evidence were not resolved.
AAO agreed that the Beneficiary's duties were primarily administrative and operational rather than managerial. Because the Beneficiary was the sole full-time employee, all non-driving tasks fell to him personally, making his role operationally hands-on rather than managerial. This distinguished his foreign position from his U.S. position where he oversees three subordinate supervisors.

The AAO found that while the Petitioner's work on radio relics received attention and her data was relied upon by others, the evidence did not establish that her contributions rose to the level of major significance. The software showed only limited adoption, and a key supporter acknowledged the Petitioner's alternative explanation had not displaced the traditional theory.…

The AAO found that while the Petitioner's work on radio relics received attention and her data was relied upon by others, the evidence did not establish that her contributions rose to the level of major significance. The software showed only limited adoption, and a key supporter acknowledged the Petitioner's alternative explanation had not displaced the traditional theory. Citation counts and publication rankings alone were insufficient to establish major significance.
The Beneficiary's South Korean bachelor's degree was not accompanied by a credentials evaluation showing foreign equivalency to a U.S. advanced degree, and no employer letters demonstrated the required five years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience to establish equivalency to a master's degree. The Petitioner waived the issue by not addressing it on appeal.
