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 provide data integration consultancy services to legal entities across various industries, including oil and gas, manufacturing, construction, and biotechnology. The endeavor aims to enhance operational efficiency and boost innovation within these industries, specifically targeting small and medium-sized businesses.

Framework Evaluation

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

The record did not show the endeavor would impact the country regionally or nationally at a level consistent with national importance.

Why This Petition Was Denied

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the first Dhanasar prong of national importance. While the petitioner projected employing 9 people and generating $720,000 in sales over five years, these figures were deemed insufficient to show a broad national impact or substantial economic benefit to the U.S. consulting industry.
