Location
United States
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 intends to open a financial consulting organization in the United States. This organization would offer a wide range of services for individuals and organizations, aiming to stimulate both the local and national economy by introducing innovative financial analysis techniques and personalized planning services.

Framework Evaluation

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

The petitioner established the substantial merit of her endeavor but failed to demonstrate national importance, as the projected economic impact was not shown to have substantial positive effects on a national level, and claims of innovative techniques lacked support.

Why This Petition Was Denied

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the first prong of the Dhanasar framework, specifically regarding national importance. While substantial merit was established, the business plan's projections of 19 employees and $1.5 million in revenue by year five lacked supporting details and did not demonstrate an economic impact rising to the level of national importance. USCIS declined to evaluate the remaining prongs.
