Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility under the first prong of the Dhanasar framework. While the AAO found the petitioner's proposed work as a nurse has substantial merit, it concluded the petitioner did not establish that the endeavor has national importance, as the impact would be limited to specific patients and workplaces rather than the broader healthcare field.
