Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate the 'national importance' of her proposed endeavor. Although her plan to open a legal consultancy business was found to have 'substantial merit', she did not provide sufficient evidence that her business would have a significant enough economic impact, such as employing U.S. workers in an economically depressed area, to rise to the level of national importance.
Criteria Discussed
Substantial Merit And National Importance Well-Positioned To Advance The Proposed Endeavor Benefit To The U.S. On Balance
