Decision Date
2024-08-06
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 open a pharmaceutical logistics consulting company in the United States to offer training and consulting services to small- and medium-sized businesses to reduce costs and protect the supply chain. She intends to mentor and train approximately 200 emerging professionals annually.

Framework Evaluation

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

While the endeavor has substantial merit, it does not have national importance as its impact is limited to the petitioner's clients and students rather than the field at large.

Why This Petition Was Denied

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the threshold EB-2 classification requirements (lacking a qualifying advanced degree or 10 years of experience for exceptional ability) and failed to demonstrate the national importance of the proposed endeavor under the first Dhanasar prong.

Request for Evidence (RFE)

Unsuccessfully Addressed

The RFE requested evidence to satisfy the EB-2 classification and the Dhanasar prongs. The petitioner provided a business plan and expert evaluation, which were found insufficient to establish national importance.
