Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary met the minimum evidentiary requirements for the O-1B classification. The Director initially found that the petitioner did not satisfy the awards criterion or any of the alternative criteria, and upon review, the AAO agreed that the evidence did not establish eligibility under at least three of the required categories.
