Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that her proposed endeavor in business consultancy had national importance. The AAO found that the petitioner's business plan lacked sufficient detail and supporting evidence to substantiate its financial and job creation projections. Furthermore, even if the projections were accepted, the record did not demonstrate that the endeavor's impact would be national in scope, rather than limited to her individual clients.
