Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility for the required three evidentiary criteria. The AAO found the evidence for the 'membership' criterion insufficient, as the petitioner did not prove the association required outstanding achievements judged by experts. Similarly, the 'published material' criterion was not met because the evidence had translation inconsistencies, missing information, and failed to establish that the regional newspapers qualified as major media.
