Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the initial evidentiary threshold of at least three criteria. Although the Director initially found the petitioner met four criteria, the AAO disagreed on de novo review, concluding that the evidence only satisfied the criteria for judging and scholarly articles, and that the evidence for lesser nationally recognized awards was insufficient to prove their significance.
