Decision Date
2024-05-23
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 affordable business management IT solutions (ERP/CRM) for small and medium-sized companies in the U.S. to strengthen their internal processes and efficiency. Additionally, he intends to implement Government Resource Planning (GRP) services in public administration institutions to improve transparency and resource management.

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 substantial positive economic effects.

Why This Petition Was Denied

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the national importance of his endeavor under the first Dhanasar prong. Although he has 40 years of experience and the work has substantial merit, the record did not demonstrate that the prospective impact would extend beyond his individual clients to provide substantial positive economic effects or broader industry implications.

Request for Evidence (RFE)

Unsuccessfully Addressed

The RFE requested a detailed description of the endeavor to evaluate national importance. The petitioner responded with an updated personal statement, action plan, and additional testimonial letters.
