Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility under the required minimum of three regulatory criteria. The AAO found that the petitioner did not satisfy the criterion for published material, as he failed to provide objective evidence, such as circulation data or rankings, to prove the publications were professional or major trade publications or other major media. Since the petitioner did not meet the initial evidentiary threshold, a final merits determination was not conducted.
