Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim. Key deficiencies included the failure to provide certified English translations for foreign language documents, rendering them without evidentiary value. Furthermore, the petitioner did not provide evidence to establish that the competitions where she won awards were nationally or internationally recognized.
