Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the sustained national or international acclaim required for the classification. The AAO conducted a de novo review and disagreed with the director's initial finding that the petitioner met the criterion for receipt of awards, concluding that the Promax and Telly Awards submitted as evidence were insufficient to prove the petitioner had risen to the very top of the field.
Criteria Discussed
Receipt Of Lesser Nationally Or Internationally Recognized Prizes Or Awards
