original contributions of major significance in the field
AAO 为什么未被说服
The reference letters were vague, generalized, and failed to provide specific examples of how the petitioner's work influenced the field as a whole. Much of the evidence either post-dated the filing or was speculative about future impact. The petitioner did not show that his work rose to the level of original contributions of major significance in the field.

The petitioner's field is not in the performing arts, so the criterion does not apply on its face. The comparable-evidence provision at 8 C.F.R. § 204.5(h)(4) does not apply because other regulatory criteria do readily apply to the petitioner's occupation. Even if comparable evidence were permissible, letters of support attesting to the petitioner's work are not comparable to objective evidence of box office receipts or record/video sales, and no specific sales figures were provided.
lesser nationally or internationally recognized prizes or awards
AAO 为什么未被说服
The certificates show participation rather than nationally or internationally recognized prizes. Awards won by the petitioner's coached athletes do not constitute the petitioner's own receipt of prizes under the plain language of the regulation.

AAO withdrew the director's finding on de novo review. The certificate did not specify whether the petitioner acted as a judge or merely a referee, and there was no evidence that being a referee equates to judging competitors' work. The support letter asserting panel judging lacked specificity and corroboration.

leading or critical role for organizations or establishments with a distinguished reputation
AAO 为什么未被说服

membership in associations requiring outstanding achievements
AAO 为什么未被说服
