Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that his proposed endeavor, a security consulting business, had national importance. The AAO found the evidence did not demonstrate a potential prospective impact on U.S. national security, crime rates, or the economy at a level commensurate with national importance. The letters of support, while speaking highly of the petitioner's services, did not establish a sufficient connection to a nationally important impact.
