Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because despite meeting the minimum threshold of evidentiary criteria, the petitioner failed to demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim in the final merits determination. The AAO found the evidence for the 'published material' criterion to be insufficient, as the articles were in provincial newspapers, local media, or were promotional in nature, not establishing that the petitioner is among the small percentage at the very top of the field.

Criteria Discussed

Nationally Or Internationally Recognized Prizes Or Awards For Excellence Membership In Associations Requiring Outstanding Achievements Published Material In Professional Or Major Trade Publications Or Other Major Media Participation As A Judge Of The Work Of Others Original Contributions Of Major Significance Display At Artistic Exhibitions Or Showcases Performance In A Leading Or Critical Role For Organizations Or Establishments That Have A Distinguished Reputation
