Decision Date
2024-06-07
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 a business manager providing specialized services in sales, finance, human resources, and purchasing. She plans to focus her consultancy on the oil and gas, infrastructure, railway, pharmaceutical, and automobile industries.

Framework Evaluation

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

The endeavor has substantial merit but lacks evidence of national importance or broader implications for the field.

Why This Petition Was Denied

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the national importance of her endeavor under the first Dhanasar prong. USCIS found that her work as a business manager would primarily benefit her specific employers rather than having a broader impact on the industry or significant economic effects. The petitioner holds an advanced degree, but her support letters from former employers focused on past performance rather than the prospective national impact of her proposed work.
