The AAO found that the Petitioner's evidence showed only that he met general qualifications for a helicopter pilot. His certifications are minimum-entry requirements, his recommendation letters make generalized statements without distinguishing him from other pilots, and his advisory opinion letter is conclusory without objective basis for claims of exceptional expertise.

AAO declined to perform a full final merits determination because the Petitioner did not clear the step-1 threshold, but noted in advisory fashion that the record does not support the required showing of sustained national or international acclaim.

AAO found the proposed endeavor has substantial merit in science, technology, and health, but that the submitted evidence failed to show how the platform's benefits extend beyond its direct users to impact the healthcare industry more broadly. Government initiatives support AI in healthcare generally but do not indicate government interest in the Petitioner's specific business activities.…

AAO found the proposed endeavor has substantial merit in science, technology, and health, but that the submitted evidence failed to show how the platform's benefits extend beyond its direct users to impact the healthcare industry more broadly. Government initiatives support AI in healthcare generally but do not indicate government interest in the Petitioner's specific business activities. Business plan revenue and employment projections lacked supporting detail and thus lacked credibility.
AAO agreed that the documentary evidence relates only to the general field of international trade, not to the Petitioner's specific endeavor, and therefore fails to demonstrate the endeavor's national importance. The Petitioner's broad assertions that the personal statements contain ample supporting evidence were not substantiated by the objective documentary record.

AAO agreed the Petitioner did not meet the final merits standard. His peer review of 27 manuscripts over six years was not distinguished; his citation record showed only one notably above-median paper; his publication record in top journals was limited and dated; and expert letters showed influence on individual researchers but not field-wide acclaim rising to the extraordinary ability level.

The AAO found that the Petitioner's claims of broad impact were unsupported by adequate corroborating evidence showing that the specific proposed consultancy work would extend beyond individual clients to enhance societal welfare at a scale indicative of national importance.…

The AAO found that the Petitioner's claims of broad impact were unsupported by adequate corroborating evidence showing that the specific proposed consultancy work would extend beyond individual clients to enhance societal welfare at a scale indicative of national importance. Merely claiming alignment with government policies or creating up to 10 jobs was insufficient without evidence of prospective impact rising to national importance.
AAO found the Petitioner failed to provide adequate corroborating evidence that his proposed work as a CEO and entrepreneur in construction and electrical equipment wholesaling would have broader implications or substantial positive economic effects at the national level. The business plan projections lacked supporting evidence of plausibility.…

AAO found the Petitioner failed to provide adequate corroborating evidence that his proposed work as a CEO and entrepreneur in construction and electrical equipment wholesaling would have broader implications or substantial positive economic effects at the national level. The business plan projections lacked supporting evidence of plausibility. Petitioner's personal qualifications and industry-level importance were misplaced in the first-prong analysis, which focuses on the specific proposed endeavor's prospective impact.
AAO found the Petitioner demonstrated only the importance of the general legal services sector and occupation, not the national importance of her specific proposed endeavor. AAO also declined to consider the post-filing change to opening her own firm, and found no evidence of sufficient prospective economic impact or job creation rising to national importance.

The AAO agreed that the endeavor had substantial merit but not national importance. Articles about the importance of small businesses spoke to substantial merit, not national importance. The benefits of the Petitioner's consulting services would not extend beyond her immediate clients, and the limited business plan projections did not establish significant economic benefits or meaningful furtherance of government initiatives.
