Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because, upon de novo review, the AAO found the petitioner did not meet the initial evidentiary threshold of three criteria. The evidence for awards was deemed insufficient because it was ambiguous whether the petitioner or her employer was the recipient. Furthermore, the submitted published material was not primarily about the petitioner but only mentioned her in passing.
