Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, an industrial engineer, failed to demonstrate that her proposed consulting business had national importance. While the AAO agreed the endeavor had substantial merit, the petitioner did not provide sufficient specific evidence to show its impact would be broader than serving her own clients, thus failing to meet the first prong of the Dhanasar framework.
Criteria Discussed
Substantial Merit And National Importance Well-Positioned To Advance The Proposed Endeavor Benefit To The U.S. On Balance
