Decision Summary
The Director denied the petition in the final merits determination, finding the evidence insufficient to prove the petitioner had sustained national or international acclaim placing him at the very top of his field. The AAO dismissed the appeal, acknowledging the Director overlooked some evidence but deeming these oversights harmless and insufficient to change the outcome.
