Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that her proposed endeavor had national importance at the time of filing. The AAO noted that the petitioner materially changed the description of her endeavor after filing the petition, and the originally stated endeavor—to continue working as an educator—was not sufficient to demonstrate the required level of national importance.
