Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that they met the required minimum of three evidentiary criteria for an individual of extraordinary ability. While the AAO found the petitioner met the 'judging' criterion, they failed to establish eligibility for other claimed criteria, such as 'membership in associations' or holding a 'leading or critical role'.
