Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the sustained national or international acclaim required for the classification. The director correctly determined that awards won by the petitioner's company did not qualify, and the evidence for personal awards was secondary (newspaper articles) rather than primary (award certificates), without justification for the absence of primary evidence.
Criteria Discussed
Receipt Of Lesser Nationally Or Internationally Recognized Prizes Or Awards
