The AAO agreed with the Director that the Brazilian competition medals were not sufficiently corroborated, noting inconsistencies in testimonial evidence and lack of official results. However, the AAO found the Petitioner's 2016 first-place finish in an international ocean rowing race satisfied the criterion based on official race results, letters from US Rowing and The Rowing Society, and extensive international media coverage.
The letters confirming employment did not demonstrate that the Petitioner performed in a leading or critical role, as they only briefly described projects without providing specific, detailed information about how her roles were leading or critical. Additionally, the Petitioner failed to show that the organizations have a distinguished reputation, as mere website addresses are insufficient.

The Dawn Images material was a photoshoot rather than published material about the Petitioner relating to her work; the author of the designer's profile section was not established; the Petitioner failed to provide evidence that Dawn Images qualifies as a professional or major trade publication or other major medium.…

The Dawn Images material was a photoshoot rather than published material about the Petitioner relating to her work; the author of the designer's profile section was not established; the Petitioner failed to provide evidence that Dawn Images qualifies as a professional or major trade publication or other major medium. The MAG the Weekly article covered a fashion show rather than being about the Petitioner, and self-promotional publisher claims were insufficient to establish major medium status.

AAO found the Director gave insufficient weight to expert letters, and that the record—including letters from independent researchers, evidence of improved performance from 20% to 96% material efficiency, and evidence that researchers at other laboratories relied on and built upon the Petitioner's published work—established original contributions of major significance.

AAO found acclaim resided with the laboratory rather than the Petitioner individually; citation statistics did not show him meeting Thomson Reuters' definition of 'highly cited'; peer review was routine and not indicative of top-of-field standing; and citing articles did not specifically endorse his work in the manner claimed.

original scientific, scholarly, artistic, athletic, or business-related contributions of major significance in the field
AAO 为什么未被说服
Expert letters lacked specificity about how the Beneficiary's approach broadly impacted the field. Documentary evidence did not isolate his role or show wide implementation of his methods. Publications and presentations were not shown to have major significance. Media quotes did not demonstrate wide implementation of his methods.
