Decision Summary
The Director initially denied the petition, concluding the petitioner's proposed endeavor lacked substantial merit because it was vaguely defined and tied to continued employment. While the AAO found the petitioner's revised endeavor did meet the substantial merit prong, the appeal was ultimately dismissed, indicating a failure to satisfy the other prongs of the national interest waiver framework.
