AAO found that while the travel and tourism industry is important, the Petitioner's specific endeavor—focused on attracting Brazilian tourists to underexplored U.S. locations via a Georgia-based travel agency—lacked concrete, corroborated evidence of substantial national-level economic impact beyond her direct clients. Generalized industry statistics and conclusory statements in her business plan were insufficient to establish national importance.
AAO agreed the Petitioner failed to demonstrate prospective potential impact rising to national importance. The Petitioner's evidence largely highlighted her own background and expertise (relevant to prong two) rather than the national-level impact of the proposed endeavor itself, and her employment creation claims did not demonstrate significant positive economic effects.

AAO agreed with the Director that the Petitioner established substantial merit but not national importance. AAO refused to consider the changed endeavor (opening a wireless network design company) introduced at the RFE stage as a material change impermissibly altering the original petition. As to the original proposed endeavor, the expert letter and policy/industry evidence spoke to the importance of the broader field rather than the national importance of the Petitioner's specific proposed services as a radio frequency engineer.
The AAO agreed with the Director that the Petitioner failed to demonstrate she was well positioned to advance the proposed endeavor. The recommendation letters lacked specificity about contributions and positioning, the business plan was insufficiently detailed, and the letter of interest was submitted after filing and lacked financial commitment details.
