AAO agreed that the Petitioner's evidence—mostly about the importance of entrepreneurship generally rather than her specific proposed endeavor—did not establish national importance. The business plan projections were unsupported (the 2021 tax return showed only the initial $20,000 investment with no income and no salaries paid, despite projections of six employees that year). The expert opinion did not elaborate on broader national or global implications, and the evidence did not show the endeavor would impact the field as a whole.
The AAO found the Petitioner conflated her professional experience (relevant to prong two) with national importance, and that economic projections were unsupported by independent, probative evidence. The expert opinion focused on the construction industry generally rather than the prospective impact of the specific endeavor.
