Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the 'national importance' of her proposed endeavor as a legal consultant, which is the first prong of the Dhanasar framework. Although her work was found to have substantial merit, the AAO concluded that the evidence did not demonstrate how her specific services would have a prospective impact extending beyond her potential clients or employers to benefit the U.S. more broadly.
