Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the AAO determined the petitioner's military and film awards did not meet the criteria for nationally or internationally recognized prizes for excellence. Although the petitioner met three other criteria, the AAO concluded in its final merits determination that the evidence, largely concentrated between 2007-2009, did not demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim or show that the petitioner had risen to the very top of the field.
