Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that her proposed endeavor as a nurse assistant has national importance. The AAO found that while nursing is an important occupation, the record did not show how the petitioner's specific work would have a prospective impact on a scale commensurate with national importance, beyond serving her immediate patients.
