Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required three evidentiary criteria. The Director initially found two criteria were met, but the AAO withdrew the finding for the 'published material' criterion because the submitted articles were not primarily about the petitioner or lacked required information like author and date. Even though the AAO found the petitioner did meet the 'high salary' criterion, this only resulted in a total of two satisfied criteria, short of the minimum three needed for this visa classification.
