Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required three evidentiary criteria. The Director determined the petitioner met two criteria (awards and published material), but the AAO agreed that the petitioner did not satisfy the criterion for membership in associations. The petitioner failed to provide sufficient evidence that the organizations required outstanding achievements, as judged by experts, as a condition for membership.
