Decision Summary
The motion to reopen and reconsider was dismissed because the petitioner failed to address one of the key grounds for the prior dismissal, which was her ineligibility for the underlying EB-2 classification as an advanced degree professional. By declining to provide evidence or argument on this issue, the AAO deemed it waived. Since this ineligibility was dispositive, the AAO did not need to address the petitioner's other arguments concerning the national importance of her endeavor.
