Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove he met the evidentiary criteria. The AAO found that a single award from nine years prior did not demonstrate sustained acclaim, and there was no documentation to establish the award was nationally or internationally recognized. The petitioner also failed to show that his membership in associations required outstanding achievements of their members.
