Decision Summary
The motion was granted but the appeal was ultimately dismissed because the petitioner's evidence was insufficient. The AAO determined that a 'Certificate of Achievement' from a former employer was internal recognition, not a national or international award. Similarly, an 'honorary membership' was in a company's internal research unit, not a qualifying professional association, and the petitioner failed to provide any published material written about his work.
