Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility under at least three of the required evidentiary criteria. The specific evidence discussed, a 'Certificate of Appreciation', was not proven to be a nationally or internationally recognized award for excellence in the field. The AAO also noted that this criterion requires evidence of multiple awards, and the petitioner only presented one.
