Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the beneficiary's sustained national or international acclaim. The AAO agreed with the director that the evidence submitted did not meet the high standard required, noting that merely submitting evidence relating to criteria is insufficient if the evidence itself is not indicative of acclaim. Specifically, the beneficiary's internal company bonuses and incentives were not considered nationally or internationally recognized prizes or awards.
