Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim. The AAO determined that the submitted awards were local or provincial rather than national or international, and lacked supporting documentation to prove their significance or the level of competition. Additionally, some documents were not accompanied by certified English translations as required by regulation.
