Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim at the very top of the field. The AAO determined that the petitioner's awards were primarily from his junior career many years prior and that reference letters focused on his potential rather than his current achievements. The evidence was deemed insufficient to prove he had maintained the required level of acclaim up to the time of filing.
