Decision Date
2024-07-29
This case is from a USCIS Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) appeal decision. Appeal cases represent a subset of petitions and may not reflect typical outcomes.

Proposed Endeavor

The petitioner proposes to serve as an entrepreneur and the general and operations manager of acai fruit bowl and smoothie franchises. The work involves managing the business operations and growth of these food service establishments.

Why This Petition Was Denied

The motion was dismissed because the petitioner failed to state new facts supported by documentary evidence for a motion to reopen. For the motion to reconsider, the petitioner did not establish that the prior decision was based on an incorrect application of law or policy, and failed to specifically identify how the evidence addressed national importance.

Request for Evidence (RFE)

Unsuccessfully Addressed

The petitioner provided a response to an RFE issued by the Director, but the AAO found that the evidence did not establish eligibility for the waiver and the subsequent motion failed to provide new facts or legal errors.
