Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because despite meeting the minimum number of evidentiary criteria, the petitioner failed to demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim in the final merits determination. The AAO found that the petitioner's achievements, such as her work judging manuscripts, were not sustained over time and did not rise to the level of a career of acclaimed work, thus failing to prove she was among the small percentage at the very top of her field.
