Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not meet the minimum of three evidentiary criteria required for the classification. The Director initially found only one criterion was met (published materials). While the AAO determined the petitioner also met the awards criterion, this was still insufficient to reach the required threshold of three.
