AAO on reconsideration found the key discrepancy in the 2021 tax documents was caused by a translation error — the payment appears consistently in all Chinese-language originals but was missing from one English translation. With that error corrected and corroborating tax documents in the record, the Petitioner met the preponderance standard for this criterion.

AAO agreed the endeavor has substantial merit but found the record fails to show national importance. Petitioner did not develop BASC standards, the support letters did not address his specific endeavor's broader impact, and the submitted articles addressed the importance of issues generally rather than his specific endeavor.

AAO agreed the endeavor had substantial merit but found the Petitioner failed to establish national importance. Arguments about the veterinary and equine industries' overall importance did not demonstrate how her specific clinic would have broader national impact beyond its immediate clientele. Employment of one to five workers and modest projected profits did not demonstrate significant economic effects at the national level.

AAO concurred with the Director that the Petitioner failed to submit a bachelor's degree or foreign equivalent degree, and noted that experience, training, or education cannot be substituted for that requirement. The Petitioner did not contest this finding.

AAO concurred with the Director that the Petitioner failed to submit a bachelor's degree or foreign equivalent degree, and noted that experience, training, or education cannot be substituted for that requirement. The Petitioner did not contest this finding.
AAO found the two-year licentiate degree is not equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree per EDGE, and the unsourced '3-for-1 Rule' in the evaluation has no regulatory basis. Without establishing a bachelor's degree or foreign equivalent, the Petitioner cannot qualify as an advanced degree professional.

AAO withdrew the Director's finding, concluding that education and skills alone are insufficient and that the letters spoke to job duties rather than a record of success in similar efforts, speaking engagements in unrelated fields (lupus, neurology) did not show connection to the radiology endeavor, and financial interest evidence was not persuasive as to investment support for the proposed endeavor.
