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 healthcare administrator for public and private facilities and create a consulting company providing internal audits and administration processes. The work focuses on process improvement, quality evaluation, internal control, and implementing industry-wide changes like Medicare quality-of-care reporting.

Framework Evaluation

0 of 3 criteria met
1 Substantial Merit and National Importance Partially Met

The endeavor was found to have substantial merit but lacked national importance.

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. Although the endeavor had substantial merit, there was no evidence of significant potential to employ U.S. workers, substantial positive economic effects, or broader implications that would extend beyond her specific clients to the field at large.
