Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required three evidentiary criteria. Although the AAO acknowledged the petitioner met the criterion for lesser nationally recognized awards, it found the evidence insufficient for the criteria of membership in associations requiring outstanding achievement and published material in major media about the petitioner.
