Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to submit required procedural documentation (uncertified labor certification forms) and did not sufficiently establish the merits of her waiver application. Specifically, she failed to provide a detailed description of her proposed endeavor and did not explain how her work as a foreign legal consultant would have the substantial merit and national importance required under the Dhanasar framework.
