Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim. The evidence submitted for the awards criterion lacked proper certified translations and did not include supporting documentation to prove the awards were nationally or internationally significant. The evidence for membership in a qualifying association contained a factual discrepancy regarding the petitioner's age, which cast doubt on the evidence's validity.
