AAO found that the Director's concerns about the level of the participants being judged were relevant only to a final merits determination, not to the threshold criterion. The submitted documentation was sufficient to demonstrate the Petitioner's participation as a judge of the work of others in the field, and the Director's determination was withdrawn.

AAO found that the citations, review articles, patents, grants, and reference letters did not establish that the Petitioner's work had significantly impacted the field.

Review articles did not single out the Petitioner's work; citation counts were low compared to peers; patents only establish originality not impact; grants show promise not impact; and reference letters spoke largely to prospective rather than already-achieved major significance.

leading or critical role for distinguished organizations
AAO 为什么未被说服
AAO found that letters relating to the Petitioner's employment did not specify how his positions fit within the organizational hierarchy or how his contributions were critical to organizational outcomes. Evidence of his Vice Director role lacked documentation of actual duties and impact on the university as a whole, and reliance on Wikipedia for establishing distinguished reputation was unreliable.

AAO agreed with the Director that the Polish diploma is equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree. The private evaluators' claim that the vocational high school provided a year of university-level credit was unsupported, and their comparisons to other European programs and integrated U.S. five-year programs were inadequately reasoned. EDGE, a reliable peer-reviewed resource, confirms the bachelor's-level equivalency.

AAO concluded that because the beneficiary's diploma is only equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree, and because the labor certification requires a master's degree with no alternate education-and-experience combination permitted, the beneficiary does not qualify for the proffered position.
