Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that his proposed endeavor in real estate development had 'national importance.' While the AAO agreed the project had substantial merit, it found the petitioner did not prove its impact would extend beyond his own company, investors, and clientele to have a significant positive economic effect or employ U.S. workers at a level commensurate with national importance.
