Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility by meeting at least three of the regulatory criteria. The AAO found the evidence for prizes and awards insufficient, noting that the honors were from for-profit biographical volumes or an organization identified by a government website as a 'scam' that charges for its accolades. The petitioner did not rebut these findings.
