Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that his proposed financial consulting business was of national importance. The AAO agreed with the Director that the petitioner did not demonstrate his endeavor would have a broad prospective impact on his field or offer substantial positive economic effects beyond his own clients. Consequently, the petitioner did not satisfy the three-prong test established in Matter of Dhanasar.
