Decision Date
2024-07-15
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 a business management specialist providing consultancy on cross-border investment structures, business planning, marketing strategies, and financial organization. He also intends to educate U.S. business owners and provide services to small and midsize enterprises through his business.

Framework Evaluation

0 of 3 criteria met
1 Substantial Merit and National Importance Not Met

The endeavor lacked evidence of broader implications for the field or a significant economic impact rising to the level of national importance.

Why This Petition Was Denied

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the first Dhanasar prong regarding national importance. The AAO found that the proposed endeavor's impact would be limited to the petitioner's own company and clients rather than the industry at large, and the submitted expert letters lacked sufficient corroborating details.
