Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish eligibility by meeting at least three of the ten regulatory criteria. While the Director acknowledged the petitioner met the 'published material' criterion, the AAO found the evidence submitted for 'original contributions of major significance,' primarily letters of support, was insufficient as it praised the petitioner's skills but failed to demonstrate how his work had a major impact on the field.
