Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary met at least three of the ten evidentiary criteria required for the classification. The Director found one criterion (judging) was met, and the AAO agreed an additional criterion (high salary) was met, but the petitioner did not successfully establish a third criterion, such as for nationally recognized awards.
