AAO agreed that the Petitioner's proposed endeavor has substantial merit but found it did not rise to the level of national importance. The articles and reports addressed the importance of the accounting field generally but not the specific prospective impact of the Petitioner's endeavor. The business plan's unsupported revenue and employment projections did not establish significant potential to employ U.S. workers or substantial positive economic effects. Letters of recommendation praised the Petitioner's personal abilities but offered no persuasive detail about the broader impact of his proposed endeavor.
AAO agreed that the Petitioner's local water purification business did not rise to national importance. The business plan addressed general U.S. water contamination issues but failed to explain how the Petitioner's company would impact the industry on a national or global scale. The contractual limitations on scope and scalability further undermined any claim of broader impact.

AAO concluded the proposed endeavor would not impact the healthcare or assisted living industries more broadly, would not employ a significant population of workers (only eleven employees by year five), and that general industry-level concerns like nurse shortages and immigrant entrepreneurship do not establish national importance of this specific endeavor.

AAO agreed with the Director that while the proposed endeavor has substantial merit, the Petitioner failed to show national importance. Expert letters and supporting documentation addressed the general importance of physical trainers and health issues rather than the broader implications of her specific local services, and the record did not show significant potential for employment of U.S.…

AAO reserved judgment on the advanced degree issue because the NIW denial was dispositive, but noted deficiencies: the academic evaluation lacked analysis of how the degree equates to a U.S. master's, did not address other schools attended, indicated only a high school diploma was needed for admission, and the work experience letters were too brief and general.
