AAO agrees the endeavor has substantial merit but finds the record fails to demonstrate national importance because the impact would not extend beyond the employer and passengers, no substantial positive economic effects or U.S. job creation were shown, and the recommendation letters and advisory opinion did not meaningfully address the specific endeavor's prospective impact.

AAO found the Petitioner's conflicting assertions about her proposed endeavor (opening pharmacies vs. providing general pharmaceutical consulting services) created uncertainty about the actual endeavor and its prospective national impact. The vague business plan, lack of specific pricing detail, absence of regulatory compliance planning, and unsupported claims of economic ripple effects, FDI, and innovation failed to demonstrate national-level prospective impact.
AAO found the Petitioner's proposed endeavor too vague and unspecified to demonstrate national importance. She failed to document what specific aviation safety or maintenance issues she would address, what economic impact would be specifically attributable to her work, or how her individual consulting activities would impact the broader field of aviation nationally.

AAO reserved the substantial merit sub-issue but found the national importance requirement not met because the Petitioner's proposed endeavors were ambiguous and shifting across filings (firearms, cosmetics, general marketing services), the claimed impacts were vague and unsupported, and the scale of the proposed businesses (e.g., 8 employees, $204,606 revenue against a $52 billion industry; 12 employees against a $26 billi…
