Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim. The AAO determined the evidence for awards was insufficient, citing a lack of proof of the awards' national stature, uncertified translations, and some being youth or provincial-level recognitions. Additionally, the petitioner did not demonstrate that his membership in associations required outstanding achievements as judged by national or international experts.
