Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner materially changed his proposed endeavor after filing the petition. He initially proposed to work as an electrical engineer but later, in response to a NOID, described plans to launch a new, multi-office business. The AAO found this constituted a material change to the petition, making it impossible to determine if the endeavor had national importance at the time of filing, thus failing the first prong of the Dhanasar framework.
