Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed. While the AAO concluded that the petitioner successfully established his eligibility for the EB-2 category as an advanced degree professional, it affirmed the Director's decision that he failed to demonstrate the 'national importance' of his proposed endeavor. The evidence, including an economic impact study, was deemed insufficient to prove that the petitioner's tourism consultancy would have a significant enough effect on the broader U.S. economy or tourism industry.
