Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that his proposed endeavor has 'national importance.' While the AAO agreed the work has substantial merit, it concluded the petitioner did not demonstrate his specific accounting consultancy would have national or global implications, create significant employment, or otherwise have a broad prospective impact beyond a local one.
