Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary met at least three of the required evidentiary criteria. The Director initially found only two criteria were met, and upon review, the AAO found the evidence submitted for the 'awards' criterion was insufficient. The petitioner did not prove that the beneficiary's Clio Awards, finalist statuses, or other advertising prizes constituted nationally or internationally recognized awards for excellence in the field.
