Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner materially changed his proposed endeavor after filing. He initially proposed providing managerial services but, in response to an RFE, claimed he would start a new company, which the AAO considered an impermissible new set of facts. The AAO also noted that the new business plan contained inconsistencies, which undermined its credibility.
