Decision Summary

The motion was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the second Dhanasar prong, which requires showing they are well-positioned to advance the proposed endeavor. The petitioner submitted new evidence of training and experience, but this evidence was from after the petition's filing date and could not be used to establish eligibility at the time of filing. The motion to reconsider was also dismissed as it did not show an incorrect application of law or policy.
