Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility by meeting at least three of the required evidentiary criteria. The director found the petitioner only met one criterion (receipt of lesser nationally or internationally recognized prizes or awards). Evidence submitted for other criteria, such as published materials, was dated after the petition's filing date and therefore could not be considered.
