Decision Summary

The motions to reopen and reconsider were dismissed. The motion to reopen failed because the petitioner did not submit new facts, but rather evidence already in the record. The motion to reconsider was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that the prior decision was based on an incorrect application of law, with the AAO affirming that the petitioner's work did not demonstrate a broader national importance beyond the benefits to his employer and clients.
