Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the required sustained national or international acclaim at the time of filing. The director determined the petitioner did not meet the high standard for the classification, and achievements documented on appeal post-dated the petition's filing and thus could not be considered. The AAO also expressed significant concern over the petitioner's failure to disclose numerous prior petition filings.
