Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim. The submitted awards were deemed local or provincial and were from the 1980s, indicating a lack of sustained recognition. Furthermore, there was no evidence that the petitioner had continued working in his field since arriving in the U.S. in 2001, failing to meet the requirement for sustained acclaim.
