Date of qualifying bachelor's degree (diploma vs. completion date)
AAO 为什么未被说服
AAO disagreed with the Director's diploma-only analysis, holding that an 'official academic record' is not limited to a formal diploma and that a case-specific inquiry is required to determine whether the provisional certificate reflects completion of all substantive requirements. However, the record was insufficient to resolve the question due to unexplained institutional relationships and an incomplete transcript.

AAO 为什么未被说服
AAO found that the third prong was not met because the record showed a certified labor certification (Form ETA 9089) had been obtained on the Petitioner's behalf, demonstrating that obtaining a labor certification was not impractical.

AAO found that the Petitioner's neonatology research has substantial merit and national importance because the work addresses sepsis and other serious NICU conditions with broader implications for the healthcare system, disseminated through journals and conferences. However, AAO noted that the Petitioner's clinical work alone did not meet the national importance element absent evidence of broader impact.
