Decision Summary
Although the petitioner met the minimum of three evidentiary criteria (leading/critical role, high salary, and judging), the appeal was dismissed on final merits. The AAO determined that the totality of the evidence did not demonstrate that the petitioner's achievements constituted a 'career of acclaimed work' or that he had risen to the very top of his field with sustained national or international acclaim.
