Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary met the minimum three required evidentiary criteria. The Director had found the beneficiary met two criteria (leading/critical role and high salary), but the AAO determined the evidence for other criteria, such as awards and original contributions, was insufficient. The submitted award lacked evidence of national or international recognition, and the beneficiary's contributions were found to be significant only within her employing companies, not for the field as a whole.
