Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary met at least three of the required regulatory criteria. Although the AAO concurred that the beneficiary's national awards satisfied the 'prizes or awards' criterion, it found that his membership in the National Bicycle League (NBL) did not qualify under the 'membership' criterion because admission to the NBL did not require outstanding achievement. The beneficiary's commendable 'Super Class' ranking was deemed insufficient to prove he had risen to the very top of the field, especially since a higher 'Elite' level existed.
