Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the requisite extraordinary ability through extensive documentation of sustained national or international acclaim. The AAO found that the petitioner did not provide qualifying evidence under at least three of the required evidentiary criteria. For instance, the petitioner's participation in the World Youth Choir was deemed participation in a developmental program, not the receipt of a prize or award for excellence.
