Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required minimum of three evidentiary criteria. Although the AAO determined the petitioner satisfied the criterion for nationally recognized awards based on his Latvian championship wins, he did not provide sufficient evidence to meet other criteria he claimed, such as memberships requiring outstanding achievements.
