Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proposed benefit of her work as a singer and voice teacher would be national in scope. The AAO determined her performances were geographically limited to the northeastern U.S. and that her teaching activities, similar to a single schoolteacher, had a localized rather than a national impact, thereby failing a key prong of the national interest waiver test.
