Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner made a material change to his proposed endeavor after the petition was filed. He initially proposed general software and IT consulting, but later shifted the focus to cryptocurrency and robo-advisors, which was deemed an impermissible change. The AAO declined to consider the new endeavor, upholding the denial based on the original proposal.
