Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that her proposed endeavor, starting a home health care company, was of national importance. The AAO agreed with the Director that the endeavor lacked the broader implications required, even though it had substantial merit. Additionally, the AAO found the petitioner did not meet the underlying exceptional ability classification, as she failed to prove the required 10 years of full-time experience due to submitting inconsistent employment dates.
