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 financial advisory and business consulting services tailored to small and medium-sized businesses through his company. The endeavor aims to enhance economic productivity and competitiveness.
Framework Evaluation
0 of 3 criteria met1 The proposed endeavor has both substantial merit and national importance. Not Met
USCIS found the endeavor had substantial merit but failed to establish national importance, as its impact was not shown to extend beyond direct customers and employees.
Why This Petition Was Denied
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the national importance of his proposed endeavor under the first prong of the Dhanasar framework. While the endeavor had substantial merit, the petitioner did not provide adequate corroborating evidence to show broader implications beyond his employees and customers, or substantial positive economic effects for the country. Projections for 21 direct jobs and $3,320,000 in revenue by year five lacked sufficient detail and basis.
