Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that her proposed endeavor had national importance. While the Director found she qualified for the EB-2 classification and her work had substantial merit, the AAO agreed that simply working for a federally funded program did not demonstrate broader implications for the field of nutrition or the healthcare industry at a level commensurate with national importance.
