Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification, as he did not possess the required bachelor's degree to qualify as an advanced degree professional. Additionally, the AAO found the petitioner did not demonstrate his proposed endeavor was of national importance, as the projected economic benefits were unsubstantiated and did not rise to the level of having a broader impact on the U.S. economy.
