AAO found that the Petitioner's references to NEA grants and governmental budgeting were generalized and did not address how the specific proposed endeavor has broader implications. Arguments about the cultural value of films addressed only substantial merit, not national importance. The record did not show broader field-level implications or significant employment creation potential.

AAO found that adding one company to a market already earning billions in profits does not establish the type of prospective national impact contemplated by Dhanasar. The Petitioner's experience and peer esteem support her positioning but do not establish national importance. The microinsurance gap evidence does not align with her stated business focus on entertainment and leisure industries.

The projected direct employment of five to eleven people and indirect employment of 25 to 70 people, set against an industry generating over 1.85 million jobs, does not show significant potential to employ U.S. workers. The projected profit of up to ~$489K in year five is not a substantial positive economic effect relative to the industry's $253.1 billion in revenue.…

The projected direct employment of five to eleven people and indirect employment of 25 to 70 people, set against an industry generating over 1.85 million jobs, does not show significant potential to employ U.S. workers. The projected profit of up to ~$489K in year five is not a substantial positive economic effect relative to the industry's $253.1 billion in revenue. Policy documents and industry articles address field-level importance rather than the specific endeavor. Recommendation letters and the expert opinion do not address the proposed endeavor's broader impact, and the published book lacks evidence of citation or field-wide contribution. The substantial merit sub-element was conceded as met.
AAO agreed there was substantial merit in the aviation field but found the Petitioner failed to show that his specific role as a pilot and aviation instructor would have sufficiently broad national implications. Evidence about the pilot shortage and aviation industry importance spoke to the field broadly, not to the national importance of the Petitioner's individual endeavor.…

AAO agreed there was substantial merit in the aviation field but found the Petitioner failed to show that his specific role as a pilot and aviation instructor would have sufficiently broad national implications. Evidence about the pilot shortage and aviation industry importance spoke to the field broadly, not to the national importance of the Petitioner's individual endeavor. The expert opinion letter addressed general national importance of aviation, not the broad implications of the Petitioner's specific work. Arguments about hiring/employing U.S. workers were inconsistent with his described duties and too tenuous.
AAO agreed the proposed endeavor lacks national importance. The Petitioner's evidence addressed the importance of the field generally, not the national importance of her specific endeavor. She provided no financial or employee projections, and failed to show her work would extend beyond her own clients to impact the broader field or economy at the level contemplated by Dhanasar.

AAO found the Petitioner did not demonstrate that her proposed freight hauling business rises to the level of national importance, as she did not show significant potential to employ U.S. workers, that her area is economically depressed, or that her endeavor would broadly benefit the transportation and logistics industry.
