Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a coach, failed to establish that his proposed endeavor had the requisite national importance. The AAO found that while his work coaching individuals and athletes had merit, he did not sufficiently demonstrate that its impact would be national in scope, thus failing the first prong of the Dhanasar framework.
Criteria Discussed
Substantial Merit And National Importance Well Positioned To Advance The Proposed Endeavor Balance Test For Waiving Job Offer/Labor Certification
