Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a singer, failed to demonstrate that she met the minimum three required evidentiary criteria. The AAO found that a 'Gold Record Award' issued by a record company was not proven to be a nationally or internationally recognized prize for excellence. Furthermore, the petitioner's employment with various bands did not qualify as membership in associations requiring outstanding achievements.
