Decision Summary
The Director initially found the petitioner met two criteria (judging and authorship), but not the required three. On appeal, the AAO agreed with the Director's assessment, concluding that the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility for additional criteria, such as memberships in associations requiring outstanding achievement. Because the petitioner did not meet the minimum of three evidentiary criteria, the appeal was dismissed.
