Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a consistent proposed endeavor. The petitioner initially proposed to work as a treasurer and controller for U.S. companies but later, in response to an RFE, fundamentally changed the endeavor to owning and operating a cleaning company. This transformation into a 'wholly different' endeavor undermined the petitioner's case under the first prong of the Dhanasar framework.
