Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the benefit of the beneficiary's work would be national in scope. The director found, and the AAO agreed, that the evidence, particularly witness letters, came from individuals with close professional ties to the beneficiary (e.g., from the same company or user group) and did not demonstrate a broader impact beyond the beneficiary's immediate community.
