Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the requisite number of criteria. Specifically, the petitioner did not demonstrate that her memberships in various professional associations required outstanding achievements as judged by recognized national or international experts. The evidence showed the organizations were either standard professional bodies, licensing authorities, or community service groups, not exclusive associations for those at the top of the field.
