Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a dental surgeon planning to open a clinic, failed to establish that her proposed endeavor had 'national importance' as required by the Dhanasar framework. The AAO found that the evidence did not demonstrate that a single dental clinic would have broad implications or substantial positive economic effects rising to a national level, despite plans for local job creation.
Criteria Discussed
Substantial Merit And National Importance Well-Positioned To Advance The Endeavor Benefit To The U.S. On Balance
