This is an AAO appeal decision — a case denied once and appealed. It shows how the framework is applied; it is not the filing population.

The Petitioner, a finance manager, sought a national interest waiver to work in finance in the United States, asserting her work would benefit the national interest.

Notable

This is the fifth combined motion to reopen and reconsider following an initial denial, one appeal dismissal, and four prior motion dismissals. The AAO noted in a footnote that the Petitioner's submitted tax return listed her occupation as 'product builder' and her Schedule C business as 'caregiver,' while the pay stubs listed no job title, casting doubt on the relevance of the new evidence to her stated finance endeavor. The merits of the NIW prongs were not re-analyzed; the decision turned entirely on procedural motion standards.
