Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that her proposed endeavor, a financial consulting business for U.S. start-ups expanding to Brazil, was of national importance. The Director and AAO found that the petitioner did not demonstrate her endeavor would extend beyond her business and clients to have a broader prospective impact. The petitioner also failed to establish she was well-positioned to advance the endeavor or that a waiver would benefit the U.S. on balance.
