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 proposes to operate a management consulting firm (LLC) providing strategy, operations, and process management services to small-and medium-sized enterprises and startups. The work focuses on business process reengineering aimed at enhancing client efficiency and minimizing administrative expenses.

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 sufficient evidence of 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 business projected $1 million in revenue by 2025, the USCIS found these figures insufficient to demonstrate a national-level economic impact or broader influence on the consulting industry.

Request for Evidence (RFE)

Unsuccessfully Addressed

The petitioner responded to the RFE with a business expansion plan to demonstrate growth, but this was rejected as a material change to the original petition.
