Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the first prong of the Dhanasar framework, specifically by not establishing that the proposed endeavor had 'national importance.' The AAO found the petitioner's strategic plan to be unclear and lacking sufficient corroborating evidence to show how the work would have a broad impact beyond general assertions of addressing climate change.
Criteria Discussed
Substantial Merit And National Importance Well-Positioned To Advance The Proposed Endeavor Benefits Of Waiving The Job Offer Requirement
