Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that her proposed endeavor, owning and operating a pet food and grooming franchise, had substantial merit and national importance. The AAO found the projected economic impact and job creation were not significant or sufficiently supported by evidence. Additionally, a new business plan submitted on appeal was not considered as it was a material change to the original petition.
