Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the AAO found that the petitioner materially changed the nature of her occupation and proposed endeavor throughout the proceedings. She shifted from a medical and health services manager, to a business owner, and then to a general dentist, which prevented a consistent evaluation of her eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification and the national interest waiver.
