Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish she was well positioned to advance her proposed endeavor at the time of filing. Key evidence, including a business plan and letters of interest, was submitted after the filing date and therefore could not be considered. The AAO also agreed with the Director that the letters were not specific enough to demonstrate her ability to advance the endeavor in the United States.
