Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as an advanced degree professional. The petitioner did not clearly define his proposed endeavor or specialty, which made it impossible for the Director to determine if his past work experience was in that specialty. The petitioner also improperly attempted to change his proposed endeavor from manufacturing healthcare products to operating a trucking company after the petition was filed.
