Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility for the classification by meeting at least three of the evidentiary criteria. The AAO affirmed the Director's findings that the petitioner's awards (e.g., YouTube Silver Creator Award) were not proven to be nationally recognized for excellence in the field, and memberships were not in associations requiring outstanding achievements. Additionally, published material was not shown to be from major media, leaving the petitioner with only one met criterion (leading or critical roles).
