Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility. The AAO determined that the petitioner's bronze medal from the World Games did not qualify as a 'one-time achievement' on the level of a major, internationally recognized award like an Olympic medal or Nobel Prize. Since the petitioner did not meet this primary criterion, nor did he establish meeting at least three of the ten alternate criteria, the appeal was dismissed.
