Decision Summary
The director denied the petition, and the AAO dismissed the appeal, because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary, an actress, possessed a demonstrated record of extraordinary achievement in the motion picture and television industry. The evidence was found insufficient to meet the high standard of winning a major award or satisfying at least three of the six alternative criteria. The AAO concluded that the documentation did not prove the beneficiary's skill and recognition were significantly above that ordinarily encountered in the field.
