Decision Date
2024-12-03
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 work as an auditor in the field of accounting.

Framework Evaluation

0 of 3 criteria met
1 The proposed endeavor has both substantial merit and national importance Not Met

The Director found substantial merit but concluded the national importance aspect was unmet, lacking significant potential for U.S. job creation or substantial positive economic effects. The AAO remanded for a clearer explanation.

2 The individual is well-positioned to advance their proposed endeavor Not Met

The Director concluded this prong was unmet, citing insufficient detail in a letter of interest and lack of evidence showing others adopted her work. The AAO noted the Director overlooked expert opinions and support letters.

3 On balance, waiving the job offer requirement would benefit the United States Not Met

The Director concluded this prong was unmet, stating the record did not demonstrate widespread benefits or job creation. The AAO found the Director did not discuss the evidence considered or specific claims.

Why This Petition Was Remanded

The Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) withdrew the Director's decision and remanded the case because the Director failed to adequately explain the reasons for denying the national importance aspect of Prong 1, did not apply relevant factors to the evidence, and did not address a large portion of the submitted evidence, including expert opinions and letters of support, for Prongs 2 and 3. The Director also did not discuss the evidence considered for the balancing test of Prong 3.
